  • Review Good to go! New article, timely nominated. Meets core policies and guidelines, and in particular: is neutral; cites sources with inline citations; is free of close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations and plagiarism. DYK nomination was timely and article is easily long enough. Every paragraph is cited. No copyright violations or too close paraphrasing. Earwig's copy violation detector: Jo-Anne McArthur report gives it a clean bill. I would note that the Wikipedia article does have a block quote about the purpose of an organization, We Animals, taken from its website. I believe that this amounts to fair use.
Hook is straight forward and basically a statement of fact, hooky enough, relates directly to the essence of the article. As the source itself says: "Jo-Anne is the featured human subject in The Ghosts In Our Machine, an award-winning documentary by Canadian filmmaker Liz Marshall." It is interesting, decently neutral, and appropriately cited. QPQ done, although article is not yet promoted (not required). 7&6=thirteen () 04:05, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the review! The "main human subject" quote comes from further down the page. I'm working on acquiring a free image. Josh Milburn (talk) 11:42, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Comment For the narrow-reading and sceptical literalists they should look at the article if they are not disposed to take your and my word for it. 7&6=thirteen () 11:54, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
  • 7&6=thirteen: I have been lucky enough to get hold of a freely licensed image and I have added it to this page- could you please confirm "for the record" that this is OK? Thanks! Josh Milburn (talk) 17:58, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Picture is used, clear and freely licensed. It is a very nice picture, at that. 7&6=thirteen () 18:00, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
