@Crosstemplejay: New enough, long enough, cited, interesting, and neutral. QPQ needs to be completed, and a couple copyright violations need to be reworded:

"more than eager to take up the job"

"Ahantaman Secondary Commercial School where he studied and obtained a certificate in stenography."

I support ALT0 (funeral) as the most interesting. --Usernameunique (talk) 21:53, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

@Usernameunique: Reworded the offending lines, QPQ done now after the issue with that dyk has been resolved. Thanks for the review. CrossTemple Jay 09:19, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
