Review


 * Pinging and  since this has stalled for a while. Not sure if you both want to continue on with this or close it out since it's been so long. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:50, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I'd like to continue with this but since I'm new to the process I'm not sure what the next step should be. I responded to the issues and made changes, so please advise as to how to proceed. Thanks! Gardneca (talk) 07:49, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I'll take another look. More anon. Andrew D. (talk) 09:13, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Gonna assume this has been put on hold, so I hope you don't mind me taking over. QPQ not required, no copyvio issues, nominated in time. Strike ALT1, as it's not Ugandan, and suggest a link to Bura people. Much prefer ALT2. Not sure "Cause of death" is quite right.

 * Symbol possible vote.svg Pulled from prep per discussion at WT:DYK; article has four "citation needed" tags and these need to be supplied before the article can proceed. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:08, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg If this isn't resolved in a week, this can be closed as failed. SL93 (talk) 09:33, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Note: I pinged nominator Gardneca on their talk page on 15 August, giving them seven days to take action. If we haven't heard back by tomorrow, I plan to put the "no" icon on this page then, though we can certainly wait until 28 August, as SL93 suggests, before actually closing the nomination as "rejected". BlueMoonset (talk) 12:58, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * That's fine too. I didn't notice it. SL93 (talk) 16:02, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Apologies for the delay SL93 and BlueMoonset, the "citation needed" areas have been addressed. Gardneca (talk) 21:00, 21 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Reviewer needed to proceed with review now that citations have been added. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:38, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I have added urls to more of the references, and added more inline citations to those references. I have also added a link to Bura language, as several of the sources do refer to "Bura-Pabir". I could not see in any of the online sources that the lizard in the tale was identified as a male agama lizard, and the one source that does identify Agadzagadza as a male agama lizard is a draft dictionary which makes no mention of the story about the lizard. So that could be an issue of WP:SYNTH, unless any of the offline sources make the connection explicit. I guess we WP:AGF on that, and anyway, it's not part of any of the hooks, and not essential to the article.
 * I don't know if I should do a closing review, as I have added more inline citations, but it does seem to me that the remaining outstanding issue has been addressed. I also prefer ALT2. RebeccaGreen (talk) 14:42, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg I don't see a rule saying editors shouldn't approve DYK noms when they have added citations to the article, so I am going to be bold and approve this. I am striking all but ALT2. The first source contains all the points in that hook. RebeccaGreen (talk) 15:40, 26 August 2019 (UTC) |}}
