Comments Nice, neat article. Placing on hold for a week. The Rambling Man (talk) 12:53, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
 * It appears to be just Sunday Herald rather than The Sunday Herald. Same for Evening Times and Financial Times.
 * Done.
 * The infobox has "Pro-independence" which simply links to Scottish independence, is there a more refined link available?
 * It seems to be a case of all roads leading to Rome. Pro Scottish independence and Scottish Independence Movement both link back to the Scottish independence article, but I'll keep looking.
 * I'd be ok with a link to a specific section of the same article if that's possible? The Rambling Man (talk) 16:40, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Picky, but should McPravda really be McPravda?
 * Done.
 * Can you contextualise Lesley Riddoch, why her opinion is worthy of inclusion in the lead...
 * Done.
 * Not keen on single-sentence paragraphs, any option for merging those two which finish the Background and Reception sections?
 * Done.
 * "first appeared " why not "was first published"?
 * Done.
 * No need to relink The Guardian in the Launch section, you already linked it in the lead and the Background section. The Spectator is also linked in three consecutive sections.
 * Done.
 * Sunday Herald is linked in the main article so no need for it to be in the See also section.
 * Done.
 * Just a thought, worth adding a note in the infobox as to when the very precise circulation statistic was valid.
 * Done.

Although I didn't nominate this one, as I pretty much wrote it from scratch I'm happy to do what I can to get it promoted. This is Paul (talk) 16:12, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Think I've done everything now, but let me know if there are any more issues and I'll take another look. Thanks for the review. Cheers, This is Paul (talk) 17:03, 4 July 2015 (UTC)


 * It looks fine to me, so I'll pass to GA status, thanks for your timely and collaborative responses! The Rambling Man (talk) 18:12, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
