  • Article is long enough and new enough. The first sentence of the lead is not supported by source #2, second sentence of the lead is supported by the article text. The next paragraph is sourced to #2 and #1, with #2 not supporting anything and #1 some parts of the text - I wonder if there was an URL error with #2. Source #8 does not support the retirement of the incumbent. Hook is supported by the article but not by the source given here (I also wonder if it gives undue importance to Cory Booker when the article the hook is about is not about him). Didn't notice any plagiarism or copyvio. QPQ is done. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 11:45, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
  • Jo-Jo Eumerus, "Shanique Davis Speight (born November 14, 1978) is an American Democratic Party politician who has represented the 29th Legislative District in the New Jersey General Assembly since 2018" is the first sentence of the lead. What part of that sentence is not covered by the source provided at her legislative webpage, as currently worded and sourced? Alansohn (talk) 15:43, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
    Because you fixed the link. So the article is almost ready, pending only a further comment on the hook as asked for here. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:47, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
