@SerAntoniDeMiloni: The hooks need to be based on sourced wording in the article. Please add the information to the article. Thanks. — Maile (talk) 21:49, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Hey — Maile . Had a go at citing these a bit. Let me know if this suits now. SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 10:32, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You're off to a good start. ALT2 needs the source linked above. ALT1 does not seem to be mentioned in the article at all, and the source you used for it seems to have moved off that page. — Maile (talk) 14:59, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey — Maile . Looking any better now? Thanks! SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 09:29, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@SerAntoniDeMiloni: You're doing pretty good so far. FYI you don't have to review another nomination until you have five DYK nominations of your own. One more thing I see - every paragraph needs an inline source, and the Enrichment Programmes secions has no sourcing. Please add sourcing to each paragraph, even if it's the same source. Ping me back, when you've done that. You can use the same Ping template I just used to ping you - just substitute my name for yours. — Maile (talk) 23:48, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Maile66: Didn't realise! Good practice I suppose. Let me know if that's looking good now. Thanks! SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 21:11, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@SerAntoniDeMiloni: It's getting there. Now ... do some re-wording of the Enrichment Programmes. Check for Copyvios just change it somewhat, so it's not so close, please. — Maile (talk) 23:52, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Maile66:. Had a run through. Let me know how it's looking. Thanks! SerAntoniDeMiloni (talk) 11:11, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
