- Reviewing... Howard the Duck (talk) 02:37, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
- Article:
- Newness: Y Created on October 8, nominated on October 15; within the 7-day limit.
- Length: Y 12788 characters, well more than the 1500 minimum.
- Within policy: Y Earwig says it is "Violation Unlikely". Possible "violations" were proper names so I'd give that a pass. This is neutral, has inline citations. AGF on ref #3, "An Experimental Investigation of Scheduling for Single-stage Production" as it seems to be unavailable offline? There also quite a few which are not linked, and are linked but are mostly abstracts but I'd AGF those.
- Hook:
- Format: Y Both are less than 200 characters and meet the guidelines:
- Content: Y I prefer ALT1 as more interesting and more specific than the generalities in ALT0.
- Other:
- QPQ: Done
- Image: Not applicable
- This is good to go, with personal preference on ALT1. Howard the Duck (talk) 00:36, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

Dick Conway passed away on Tuesday, March 19.
Dick Conway passed away on Tuesday, March 19. He was 92. How does Misplaced Pages go about fixing the page under such circumstances? I would love to get a picture of him on here, but I don't have one with the right license. DavidGries (talk) 14:14, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
