* ... that Ditshwanelo has been campaigning since the 1990s against capital punishment in Botswana? Source: (1990s) https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=bHomETtda5EC&dq page 97 and (2020) https://www.mmegi.bw/index.php?aid=84611&dir=2020/february/27

  • Hi.
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: Yes
  • Interesting: Yes
  • Other problems: No - If I'm reading this source correctly, Ditshwanelo won an emergency stay of execution in 1999 after given 3 days notice, not 1995. Technically that is in the 90s, but to me it feels a bit deceptive. I think it would be better to say "since the late 1990s", or "since 1999", unless you have sources for that still. And also update the article with the above correction. Let me know if I misread.
QPQ: Done.
