 * Symbol question.svg The article is long enough (4318 characters) and new enough (created on 5 September, nominated on 9 September). It is references inline, with at least one reference per paragraph. It is neutrally worded and but has some problematic close paraphrasing; some paraphrasing flagged up was either the names of things (eg Alan Wheat's Advisory Committee on Health Care) or a stock phrase that would be difficult to reword (eg an alternate delegate to the National Democratic convention), but there are a couple of seemingly copy and pastes which need re-wording:
 * The sentence about the sponsored "Ambulance Drive for Health Care Reform"
 * The last paragraph of her career between She was selected by the ANA and advance team for a health care rally.
 * The hook is interesting, short enough, and cited inline. It is a merging of two sentences (both cited) from the article.
 * QPQ is complete, there is just the plagiarism to fix. Gaia Octavia AgrippaTalk 11:25, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
