Murder of Michael Nigg

[edit]
  • ALT1:... that the two men who killed Michael Nigg 20 years ago today in Hollywood asked him for money, then shot him in the head without taking anything and fled the scene?
  • Reviewed: 2015 Chattanooga shootings
  • Comment: Another anniversary-related article. I would like this to run September 8.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: There are a couple confusing sentences in the article, like "He worked there until a month before Goldman's June 1994 murder with Nicole Brown Simpson," People who are familiar with the OJ trial can figure out that you mean Goldman was murdered with Nicole, but to a reader who is unfamiliar with that chain of events it reads as though he worked there with Nicole. That sentence needs to be rephrased. There are also a few other sentences that could do with a good copyedit for clarity. It's unclear at times which murder you are referring to in which sentence. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 14:15, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

 Done I fixed that. Daniel Case (talk) 03:09, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

There is a question mark next to copyvio/close paraphrasing. If there are issues that need to be resolved, there should not be a "y' next to Status. It should be "?", "maybe" or "no".— Maile (talk) 21:23, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

@Maile66: I don't understand why that question mark is there. I think it's an error in the template. I put a y next to "plagerism free" when I filled out the template, and the y is still there. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 14:10, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
