Review of revision 4683943 [Not ready][edit]

Apologies, I did not realise that the Financial Times was behind a firewall, possibly that is a regional difference? I have removed the content from that article and resubmitted this page for review.--CSJJ104 (talk) 13:41, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. The most-cited, paywalled sources are the New York Times, Washington Post, The Telegraph, The Times & The Sunday Times and the FT. --JJLiu112 (talk) 15:49, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Review of revision 4684043 [Not ready][edit]

I've corrected June 21 to July 21, and to clarify the November 1 date can be found in the article from Reuters. If it helps the full sentence is "European nations have scrambled in recent months to fill winter natural gas storage with the European Commission mandating storage reach at least 80% by November 1."

It has been a while since I've contributed to Wikinews, is the use of hidden text no longer allowed? I have previously used it to let the reviewer know which source to check for attribution, but I see this has been removed from this article.

@JJLiu112: Before I move this back for review, can I query the last line in the article? Currently this states "There are warnings achieving this target will be difficult if disruption to Russian gas supplies from the invasion of Ukraine continues." but neither source states that the disruption is directly caused by the war. I have attempted to rework this sentence to reflect that supplies are being limited as a response to EU sanctions. I'm not concerned over the exact wording, but would including this seem sensible to you? --CSJJ104 (talk) 01:18, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for pointing out the date. Hidden text is OK, I personally don't like it so I've removed it — anyway, no difference on the reader. See BBC "The bloc has made moves to wean itself off Russian fossil fuels in response to war Ukraine" and "Energy prices jumped earlier this year after Russia invaded Ukraine"; IMO its inclusion draws a relevant parallel as both points are a disruption to what was the pre-invasion status quo. --JJLiu112 (talk) 01:34, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@CSJJ104: looks good for publication. Please resubmit for review. --JJLiu112 (talk) 01:40, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I made some minor edits and resubmitted. SVTCobra 01:56, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I've reversed your edits: 'on Thursday' and 'Thursday' are equivalent, the Shell company is both well-known and it is not mandatory to specify companies' descriptions in WN articles (Elon Musk emails tell Tesla employees return to office, or "assume you have resigned": "Leaked correspondence between Tesla, Inc. boss Elon Musk"...India grants Novavax Covid-19 vaccine emergency use authorisation for teens: "On Tuesday, the Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) granted emergency use authorisation to Novavax"), it is not normal practice to wikilink titles (President, Prime Minister, CEO, Head).

I thought it beneficial to make sure readers didn't think it was a Shell corporation and I don't know how global usage of the moniker CEO is. If it said company president, I would not have added a link. Anyway, I am happy to see we published another article. Cheers, SVTCobra 02:09, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding the 'on Thursday' and/or on 'July 14' (on front page), it feels to me that without 'on' something like "Speaking at the Aurora Spring Conference Thursday" becomes indistinguishable from the name of the conference. Maybe if we move it earlier, like "Speaking Thursday at the Aurora Spring Conference" it would clear up any possible confusion. Cheers, SVTCobra 02:17, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
