  • New article, substantial in size. It's a controversial subject but the article appears to be written neutrally. Sources are throughout, including citing the hook fact, which is interesting enough. Image inline demonstrates the hook well. Earwig is happy, says "violation unlikely". Waiting on QPQ. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:44, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm surprised to see this article is rated B class across a number of projects, as the overall tone from the outset gives off a pretty strong impression of violating NPOV (mostly through use of terminology and choice of emphasis). It could benefit from a style/tone rewrite, without altering the content per se. 108.175.233.87 (talk) 01:10, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Indigenous women and two-spirit people have led the resistance to the construction of the pipeline, which began following the project's approval in November 2020." That is the way progressive activists talk (the usage of the word resistance; a heightened focus on intersecting "marginalized" identities), not an encyclopedia. Also, the category "Environmental justice", among many other examples. People are entitled to their views, but it is a complete violation of NPOV to talk in the way activists and Twitter users talk. 2600:1700:FB20:2EB0:8D6B:744E:111A:278C (talk) 21:31, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
