  • ... that on the island of Cikobia-i-Ra women donate 10% of their earnings combat climate change? Source: "...10 per cent of their earnings had been channelled towards their environment sustainability project ..." https://fijisun.com.fj/2011/10/20/cikobias-women-agents-of-change/

    • Comment: In the geography section there are two citation neededs - the infomation came from translation from other language wikis, but the weather references didn't transfer well. Would be very grateful for a pointer to where reliable replacement sources might be found, or advice on whether to remove part of the section. Thanks.

QPQ: Done.

Overall: This is a very interesting article - thank you for uploading it. The only issue, as you say, is the meteorological overview, which does not appear to have any sources readable in English - I have searched and found nothing useful. The short term solution would be to preserve that unsourced paragraph by moving it to the talk page with an explanation and a request for sources. That way, you will have time to find a source at leisure, without fear of deletion, tagging etc. Meanwhile you could perhaps simply substitute a meteorological overview for Fiji in general, with some provisos (if necessary and if you can find any sources for that bit) that the weather may vary on outlying islands. Meanwhile, I believe that the article can survive for the present without that paragraph. In my opinion, once you have dealt with that paragraph, the rest of the article is fine.

  • Storye book, Thanks very much - I moved the weather section out for now. Fingers crossed a metereologist will come along & help! Lajmmoore (talk) 16:52, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
  • Thank you, Lajmmoore. It might be wise to strike out your comment about the weather section above, now, so that it doesn't delay promotion. The nom is good to go now. Storye book (talk) 18:50, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
