Improved to Good Article status by Hawkeye7 (talk). Self-nominated at 06:17, 7 August 2020 (UTC).
- Article - Promoted to GA within 5 days, long enough and within policy Y
- Hook - Meets formatting requirements, interesting and neutral Y
- QPQ - Checked Y
- Would you like this to be passed now, or would you rather wait for Otto Hahn's GA review?
- Adding Otto Hahn specifics to this review, since it came up at WT:DYK. Most of the DYK review has already been checked above, but I went ahead and fully checked it anyway. It passed GA on August 28, 2020. It's certainly long enough, and detailed enough, with every paragraph sourced - some of them multiple times. The images are on Commons and appropriately licensed. The care and detail with which this was edited and upgraded even before it passed GA, is really evident. The work on Otto Hahn is excellent. I ran it through Earwig's copyvio tool, and the only thing that came up was some oddball jewelry site that, when I opened it, had nothing about Otto Hahn. Every paragraph is sourced as they should be. Images are appropriate. QPQ supplied, and the GA passing makes it eligible. Eveyything is fine for DYk here. — Maile (talk) 00:42, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
