5x expanded by LouisAlain (talk) and Gerda Arendt (talk). Nominated by Gerda Arendt (talk) at 21:11, 2 July 2020 (UTC).

• @Gerda Arendt: Long enough, expansion is valid and recent enough, article is well-referenced, neutral, and generally within policy. I am a little concerned about the long block quote at the end. It might be too long as fair use, and might be too monotonous for the reader as well. Suggest shortening the quoted portion. The hook is appropriate, is found in the article with citation. AGF on the foreign language citation, although quickly checking Google Translate seems to corroborate the information. QPQ is still not done. HaEr48 (talk) 05:07, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

  Thank you for a thorough look. I reviewed now Template:Did you know nominations/Nerine Barrett. The two quotes were my simple solution when the ITNN people wanted more detail. I am reluctant to change while he is on the Main page. Also: this is not one person's view on the subject (in danger of not being neutral), but the careful wording of a prize-awarding foundation. I'd be reluctant to say the same in my words - English not being my first language - but perhaps you could? ... after off the Main page that is. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:23, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

• QPQ requirement is met now. If that is what the ITN folks want I'm happy to defer to their and your judgement. Good to go now. HaEr48 (talk) 17:59, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
