Created by Kaizenify (talk) and Jlevi (talk). Nominated by Jlevi (talk) at 03:56, 30 January 2020 (UTC).
New enough; long enough; no QPQ required. Sufficiently referenced. I've done a lot of copy-editing to get this into shape (to the extent that I'm not far off being a co-editor rather than a reviewer). I have concerns about the photo used in the article and nominated that for deletion. There is too much close paraphrasing from the Greenpeace source and that will have to be addressed before this goes any further; Jlevi I suggest you attend to this (as nominator). I note that half the sources use "Oladosu" as the given name and I've put a query in with the subject via Twitter mail. I've removed the birth date from the article as it wasn't in the source given; that (and the fact that we've got a middle name) makes me believe that she is known to the article creator, and that Oladosu is in fact her family name.

- Just confirming that I've heard back from the subject and we've got the naming correct. Schwede66 21:03, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
Close paraphrasing has not been attended to by the nominator or the article creator. Schwede66 17:46, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
Time to nuke this. Schwede66 20:04, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
@Schwede66: Looks like they were never notified on their talk page. Their first notification was today from @BlueMoonset:. Let's give them a few days to see if they look at this. — Maile (talk) 20:15, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Maile, is notifications via ping insufficient? Schwede66 20:40, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Some users have their notification turned off in Preferences. And sometimes the pings don't work like they're supposed to. I just use the notification template in the "Description" above. — Maile (talk) 20:49, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Gosh, you learn something new every day. I know what stops pings from working (and I make sure that I edit accordingly). But I didn't know that you can turn notifications off. Thanks for bringing that to my attentions. Schwede66 22:31, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Hi! Yeah, I didn't get the ping. Feel free to kill this nomination. In the future, I'll only nominate something I'm actually invested in. Thank you so much for your help fixing up the page, Schwede66, and sorry for the trouble. Jlevi (talk) 22:27, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Maile, is notifications via ping insufficient? Schwede66 20:40, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

Adenike will confront those fears in the coming week along with millions of others across the world as she joins the global climate strike, which kickstarts with a global day of action on Friday....She reels off a long list of reasons for her sense of unease: drought in the north of Nigeria is worsening conflict and driving migration. Floods are affecting wider areas and adding to pressures on displaced people's camps. Food prices are rising because agricultural land is ruined. Livestock are dying because of heat stress, which has also killed three of her pet puppies. "I really don't know whether we are going to win this race [against runaway climate change]. I think about it every day," she said.
