Review of revision 4197156 [Not ready][edit]

Revision 4197156 of this article has been reviewed by Pi zero (talk · contribs) and found not ready at 16:38, 20 February 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Comments by reviewer:

  • Unfortunately, NYT articles are paywalled for anyone in (as best we can tell) North America, which includes this reviewer. We do have an explicit policy prohibiting use of pay-to-read sources, and as a purely practical matter I can't access the source for review. Don't use NYT as a source; it's as simple as that.
  • This is a bit below minimal length; we ask for at least three paragraphs with total text at least equivalent to three medium-sized paragraphs. A few more sentences needed to reach that total.
  • There might be some passages overly close to source, but I'd need to look more closely to be sure; I suspect it's mostly pretty good on that point.

Questions about the above? Ask.

If possible, please address the above issues then resubmit the article for another review (by replacing {{tasks}} in the article with {{review}}). This talk page will be updated with subsequent reviews.

Revision 4197187 of this article has been reviewed by Pi zero (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 19:56, 20 February 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Comments by reviewer:

  • I suspect details cut because unverified may be due to loss of the NYT source; but, unverified is unverified, however it happened. Hopefully, avoiding NYT will prevent a repeat of the problem.

The reviewed revision should automatically have been edited by removing {{Review}} and adding {{Publish}} at the bottom, and the edit sighted; if this did not happen, it may be done manually by a reviewer.
