I'll take this review. I'll note the concerns raised in the previous review, but I don't agree with all of them or think the quick fail was warranted. Hog Farm (talk) 19:52, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Many thanks, I'll get to this very shortly. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:33, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Would it be appropriate to add a couple sentences explaining the origins of yoga before stating that it became popular in the West in the '90s?

Good idea. Done.

You link to the wrong Strauss article in the origins section, I'm assuming you meant to link to the company (which has a an independent article) rather than the 19th-century founder.

Linked to the company.

What is an "unfamiliar brand"? It's the terminology used by the source, but can you provide some context for what the source is referring to?

Said "less well-known". Of course it means a name nobody ever heard of, sewn into the waistband in a sweatshop somewhere well out of sight.

Usage Whats "the high street"? I'm assuming this is a BE variant, but I'm not such what the equivalent in other forms of English would be.

Wikilinked. The American would be "main street"; the meaning is "the street in your town where the shops are", but of course that might not exist any more, so the truth might be A**z*n or a shopping mall 20 minutes out of town.

In the lead, you single out the sales figure for the athleisure segment as a whole, it would be more on topic to use one specifically for yoga pants if available.

Found a more specific figure for yoga clothing at least, new ref.

Social issues - "similar complaints caused a ban in Rockport, Massachusetts, quickly reversed" - Not the best way to phrase this. " [...] caused a ban [...] that was quickly reversed" would be better if that was the meaning you intended.

Done.

Can we get accessdate parameters for all of the websites cited?

Done.

Is reference #26, "Yogi Goals", a RS?

Removed.

The last image, the Gingerbread-print yoga pants image, is tagged as "Own work", but looks to me like suspisciously close to a staged photo shoot, which would likely not be taggable as "Own work". What do you think?

Removed.

The last sentence of Types is very similar to a sentence at [1]. You didn't use this as a source, so the book probably used one of the same sources you did. This would still need a bit of rephrasing to make it less similar, though.

The book has copied from the article; its whole coverage of yoga pants is identical to a chunk of the article version of 29 January 2018, just before the e-book's publication date of 9 February 2018.

That's it for the GA review. Hog Farm (talk) 01:55, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Passing for GA, all concerns addressed. Hog Farm (talk) 13:58, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
