Durga Shakti Nagpal

[edit]
  • Reviewed: Not needed as not a self-nom
  • Comment: The article was created on 28th July, so it has exceeded the 5 day nomination period by 3 days. But even with being only 8 days old, the article is over 12000 byte size and is expanding and looks at a fair good chance of further expansion. Hence i would request reviewer's discretion to pass it ignoring the 5 days rule, which the reviewer can do. Also, the article is currently at AfD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Durga Shakti Nagpal and the review can wait till the result of that is out. But i didn't want to delay the nomination further. Also, the article needs a good overhaul and many experienced editors are now working on it. More interesting hook alternatives are also welcome. The current can be tweeked for tense change depending on the situation of the day it actually features.

  • Comment: Since the article size was 6,691 bytes here on 31 July, and it now (on 4 August) is 37,508 bytes, I think is has managed to pass the 5-day, 5-times expansion criteria. :) Anir1uph | talk | contrib 11:29, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
  • It doesn't work that way. You should only consider the prose size. From 3034 chars on 31 Jul to 12,782 chars to date, it has been expanded only by four times. It still needs a fair amount of work. Vensatry (Ping me) 03:03, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Thanks for letting me know about that. :) Why don't you post some of the problems you see with the article on the talk page - I will try to address them. Thanks! Anir1uph | talk | contrib 11:42, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Note: Article is undergoing extensive editing at the moment, and isn't stable enough to pass DYK. It exited AfD with a keep, but with a notation that NPOV and MOS issues needed work, so those will have to be addressed (and presumably is being so during the current spate of editing). According to DYKcheck, it has achieved 5x expansion from July 31, meaning that it now meets the five-day rule before the August 4 nomination. With luck, it will be ready within a few days for a full DYK review. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:37, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Article is stable. As it qualifies in the newness and expansion areas, a full review is now in order. Please be sure to check NPOV and MOS issues, as those were identified as problematic during the AfD period. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:50, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

  • Article says allegedly demolishing an illegal mosque, alt1 does not mention "allegedly". --TitoDutta 05:33, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
She did not "allegedly" demolish it. But i understand what you mean to say and the "she considered illegal" serves that purpose. We can nevertheless also go with ALT2. But isnt the original hook better? It demonstrates the mass mass appeal she received. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 06:30, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
