Resistance to diversity efforts in organizations
[edit]... that pro-diversity organizational messages are threatening to Whites and may contribute to the resistance to diversity efforts in organizations?ALT1:... explicitly including Whites as a part of multiculturalism may help to reduce resistance to diversity efforts in organizations?
Created by Makotanaka (talk). Self-nominated at 22:22, 10 December 2017 (UTC).
-@Makotanaka:-The hooks need citations.Otherwise everything is okay, QPQ is not needed, Article is sufficiently large, IAR on submission delay.Thanks for contributing — comment added by Force Radical (talk • contribs) 10:10, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
Force Radical, as Makotanaka is a student who appears to have made that article as part of a class, we're unlikely to get a response. However, ALT0 seems to be backed up by this cited sentence in the article: "Another line of research found that members of high-status groups (i.e. Whites) reacted adversely to pro-diversity organizational messages when compared to non-Whites.[10]" ALT1 seems to refer to this section of the article, although it would need adjustment (precise language/citation) to work with the hook. Therefore, off of the basis of your review, I'm going to strike ALT1 and approve ALT0. --Usernameunique (talk) 06:38, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

Hook: "... that pro-diversity organizational messages are threatening to Whites and may contribute to the resistance to diversity efforts in organizations"?

This was pulled from queue due to the many reasons listed at WT:DYK and copied here (in the compressed section above): not only major hook issues, but for issues in the article including unsourced controversial statements and synthesis, both of which are not allowed for DYK articles. (I struck the original hook, which proved problematic.) As was noted there, the article was a student project that was submitted to DYK in the final week of the course, which ended December 15, and the nominator hasn't edited since submission day. The article was also nominated quite late: created on November 25 and not nominated until December 10, eight days late, a bit past the usual extensions we give first-time nominators. Pinging Ian (Wiki Ed), who was the liaison with this course, and with whom I've been in contact regarding GA nominations for this course. (I did remove this article's GAN, also made on December 10, given the severity of the issues raised; there's no way it could meet the GA criteria.) Absent someone doing significant work on the article, I don't imagine that this can run at DYK. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:06, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
Marking for closure; problems still exist after eleven days and no edits have been made to address them. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:20, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
