• The article has been expanded enough within the requisite timeframe. It is long enough. It is neutrally written. The QPQ is complete. Two issues, however. There is some close paraphrasing, to the point of copyright violation, as this shows: [1]. And, the hook is not cited inline, and I cannot access the provided link to verify whether it is purely a matter of duplicating a reference. Once these are fixed, this can be passed.

The text flagged as close paraphrasing is the inscription on the monument which is a direct quotation!

I'm not sure what the problem is accessing the source for the hook. It's the PDF of the New York Times article and it is available online. It's also displayed in the link you gave for the suspected copyvio - you can just look there in the paragraphs before and after the inscription (the red text). MB 14:25, 29 November 2016 (UTC)

• God, I must be having a bad day: I could have sworn I checked for that...oh well. I've duplicated the reference, so this is GTG. Vanamonde (talk) 14:38, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
