Article has achieved Good Article status. No issues of copyvio or plagiarism. All sources appear reliable. Hook is interesting and sourced. QPQ is done. Looks ready to go. Thriley (talk) 03:01, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
Berthod's becoming a Franciscan monk is not mentioned in the article Aszx5000. Personally, I would be inclinde to remove the last nine words of the hook per WP:DYKTRIM. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:13, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- @AirshipJungleman29:, I have added his vocation to the article now; no problem trimming but I think the fact that he returned to ascend it is a great part of the story (and hook)? Aszx5000 (talk) 16:24, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- @AirshipJungleman29: Have your concerns been resolved? Z1720 (talk) 17:24, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Yes. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 17:25, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Aszx5000 A few things need to be rephrased per Earwig. Even little parts like "the first free ascent" and "one of the hardest crack climbs in the world" can, and should, be rephrased. Those are just two examples. SL93 (talk) 01:45, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Aszx5000: Please address the above. Z1720 (talk) 19:55, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
looks like it's been a week since comment, so, marking this one for closure. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 08:11, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- @BorgQueen:, @Theleekycauldron:. I am only back from my travels today and will answer this shortly. There is a simple explanation and it is just an understandable misunderstanding of climbing terms (e.g. first free ascent). But can you re-open and I will then respond? Sorry for the inconvenience. thanks. Aszx5000 (talk) 08:59, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Very well. Re-opened. BorgQueen (talk) 09:34, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- @SL93:. Only back from my travels so responding to your comments above. The term first free ascent is a 'climbing term' and would never really be paraphrased. "Hardest crack climb in the world" is also a common phrase climbing as crack climb is also a climbing term (there are many climbing refs online using "hardest crack climbs in the world" - E.g. here, here). The other copyvios are from direct quotes that I have attributed to the author, and I wanted to use their statement for clarity. I hope that addresses your concern, but happy to discuss further, or take any reasonable action you feel is needed. thanks. Aszx5000 (talk) 10:06, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
I will take your word for it. SL93 (talk) 16:50, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
