Overall: Article meets eligibility criteria - newness and length. Well sourced. Will WP:AGF on non-English language sources. Tone is neutral. Earwig does not show any issues with Copvio. The image that has been used in the article is used under WP:FAIRUSE. QPQ done. Question for the nominator regarding the hook -- Google Translation of the source says 22.2.1940 - arrested by the Gestapo for participation in the resistance movement; 1941 - death sentence changed to life imprisonment. I am assuming the resistance movement is the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, which makes sense. The latter part of the hook says "and spent years in Nazi prisons" is that attributed to ref #6 in the article. i.e. the offline source Slovník českých spisovatelů beletristů, 1945–1956 (in Czech). Prague: Státní pedagogické nakladatelství. p. 171? If so, I will WP:AGF on that one. Passing back to nominator for the clarification. Ktin (talk) 02:05, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the review, Ktin! The source above [2] actually indicates that he was imprisoned from 1940 to 1945 (vězněn (1940 - 45)). Just for good measure, I've supplemented that part of the article with another source (ref #4). It's offline but in the English language and I'll quote it here: "He joined the Resistance movement in the Second World War, and was arrested by the Gestapo in February 1940. He remained in a Nazi concentration camp until the end of the war." DanCherek (talk) 02:55, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
Sounds good DanCherek. A bit nit-picky, but, I am assuming he did serve in multiple nazi prisons (plural), which seems obvious, but let me know if that is not the case. Marking approved.
Thanks! Yeah, the sourcing is a bit scattered but he was transferred between several prisons, per the cited ref #6. DanCherek (talk) 04:02, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
