General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Spot on. Well sourced. Everything else is fine. Hook is probably as interesting as it is going to get having looked at the sources. Dictionaries are not renown for their inherent interest. Good to go. Gog the Mild (talk) 15:19, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

  • "Monolingual" is unsourced. Gatoclass (talk) 16:55, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
    @Gatoclass: Thanks for your comment. The source cited in hook says that the dictionary gives meaning of Gujarati words in Gujarati itself. That means it is monolingual dictionary. -Gazal world (talk) 17:03, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
Fine, but the hook fact is still uncited in the article. Gatoclass (talk) 17:11, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
It is cited in history section. See. --Gazal world (talk) 17:14, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
I'll take another look tomorrow - too tired right now. Gatoclass (talk) 17:43, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
@Gatoclass: Are you now refreshed? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:16, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
  • The hook fact is clearly stated and sourced; I made it even clearer. Restoring tick per Gog the Mild's review. Yoninah (talk) 21:07, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
