June 4th Museum[edit]
- ... that the June 4th Museum (pictured) is the exhibition museum for the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989?
Created by Sdee (talk). Self nominated at 20:45, 14 April 2014 (UTC).
Dates and lengths all good. Most of the article is referenced to foreign language sources, so had to use online translation. Was able to confirm hook fact. Bulk of the article facts confirmed and for the few items I could not explicitly confirm appear to be caused by limitations in the translator. Image has an appropriate free license and as China has freedom of panorama there do no appear to be any issues with it being a derivative work. --Allen3 talk 15:33, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
I feel very uncomfortable promoting this to the main page when the article talks about the musuem being scheduled to open on April 26 when today is three days after that, especially when it mentions possible controversy over the opening. Under the circumstances, I think the article needs to be updated to say whether the museum is now open before it can proceed. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:49, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
- Do you have a source that shows that it is open, TINHO? I think we need that cited in the article; just changing the wording is not sufficient. Thanks. Also, I'm not sure of the exact meaning of the intro's "which is one of the ceremony for the 25th anniversary for the incident". Perhaps a rewording would make the meaning clearer?

There has been no response nor edit to address the above. Keeping this nomination open until the end of May, but will close after that if nothing is done by then. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:12, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
It appears the remaining concern is a ref for the opening. Is this enough? It seems there is lots of press coverage of the event. This is a, IMHO, very interesting article, international (which is sadly lacking) and even has a cool picture. It's time to put this up. Maury Markowitz (talk) 17:48, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- New enough (for 14 April) and long enough. The hook image is free, and it appears in the article. Chinese-language citation for hook accepted AGF. No problems with disambigs or external links. I have taken it AGF that there are no plagiarisms, as I cannot translate Chinese characters. The images in the article are free. The English language is not perfect, but it is clear, and can be addressed later by a copyeditor. Issues: (1) Sdee, as a self-nominator you are expected to do a QPQ review because you have achieved more than 5 DYKs already. Please do so? (2) The triple image in the article is fine, but it is squashing the text to the left. If you change the "right" parameter to "center", then the triple image will appear neatly above the text, without any squashing. If you can correct these issues, this nom will be good to go. --Storye book (talk) 12:43, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- No, we are NOT going to hold up this nom because of a picture formatting issue. The QPQ has to be addressed (if this problem actually exists) but if you don't like the picture formatting, just fix it. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:49, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- In my experience, reviewers can hold up noms if they attempt to edit the article which they are reviewing, because in doing that they may trigger a request for yet another review. I am sorry that this causes you inconvenience, but I am trying to clear the review backlog here, and to speed up noms like this one. It is up to you (and other editors) as to whether you wish to respond to issues raised and get your article promoted. --Storye book (talk) 14:17, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

- The QPQ is outstanding, but I see that the nominator hasn't been active for three weeks now, with a couple of notifications on the user's talk page already. So unfortunately, this is on its way towards a reject. As is pointed out above, whilst the English isn't perfect, it's entirely readable; I have copyedited the lead.

- I've reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/The World's Billionaires having not nommed an article. Count it as the QPQ needed and let's move this article along.--v/r - TP 21:22, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you TParis for kindly donating the QPQ. I have made a minor edit to the article because I couldn't let the text-squashing go through to prep like that. I hope that minor edit does not disqualify this review. Good to go now (whoever ultimately says it!) --Storye book (talk) 20:01, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
