The article was created less than seven days before the nomination. It is long enough, neutral and uses inline citations. There do not appear to be copyright violations. The hook is cited and does not violate WP:BLP. The QPQ is done. The only problem that I noticed is that the citation at the end of the "End of Term" section doesn't seem to verify the content.

Hello Gulumeemee, thanks for the review I have addressed your concern. It must have been an oversight. Please go through it again. Thanks. God bless. CrossTemple Jay 16:30, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

The article is ready now. Gulumeemee (talk) 00:57, 11 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, but do not find it interesting to a broad audience. I would sooner click on Council of State to know what you're talking about. Yoninah (talk) 19:08, 15 July 2017 (UTC)

@Yoninah: More hooks suggested. Thanks for your review.CrossTemple Jay 14:24, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

@Crosstemplejay: thank you for the ALTs. I like ALT1. The source for that, however, seems to be a compilation site that is quoting specific newspapers. Perhaps you could instead link to the actual newspaper in which this fact appears? Also, as I noted on your talk page for Template:Did you know nominations/Margaret Amoakohene, some of your footnotes are formatted very strangely, breaking up the "author" into things like "Ghana, Modern". Please reformat using the "author=" template line rather than "first1=", "last1=" template lines. Finally, do you have any other personal biographical information to add about his early life, education, or profession? Just wondering what he was doing between 2009 and 2017. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 16:48, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

@Yoninah: Added another source to the hook. There is currently nothing more I can add now. CrossTemple Jay 17:03, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

@Crosstemplejay: OK. That source is good. I'll give the tick for ALT1 after you do something about the reference formatting. Yoninah (talk) 17:07, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

@Yoninah: Referencing format corrected. Thanks.CrossTemple Jay 17:03, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

@Yoninah: Are you happy with this now? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:42, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

Yes. I tidied up the references some more. There are two citations for the ALT1 hook fact, so it's verified. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 13:55, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
