  • Jon698, it has been over two weeks since your nomination, and the QPQ review has still not been supplied. Please do so within the next seven days if you wish to continue with this nomination. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
  • Full review needed now that QPQ has been submitted. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:28, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
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: Article is well sourced, long enough and was a recent GA at the time of nomination. Earwig does not pick up any copyvio outside of false positives (organization names, etc). The hook is interested and cited. I tweaked ALT0 slightly to mention that Duke is a Neo-Nazi per his wiki page since that provides context for his other antics. Since qpq has been provided this nom looks ready to go! BuySomeApples (talk) 04:36, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
