 * Comment: Remember to wikilink and bold the article in the hook. I've taken the liberty of doing this for you above. (: There's also a grammatical error, which I've fixed too.― Bio chemistry 🙴 ❤   04:21, 29 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:12, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. No close paraphrasing seen in 2 English-language sources; the rest of sources are foreign-language. No QPQ needed for new nominator.
 * A few issues:
 * I do not think the company logo is correctly licensed. It is lifted from a website. It should probably be re-licensed as "Fair use" on Wikipedia (not on Commons, which doesn't accept fair use licensing).
 * The book refs to Swedish-language books should be reformatted per Citation templates. The publisher is not Google Books, but the publisher of the book. The title is not the isbn number, but the title of the book, etc. If you need help, let me know.
 * The hook reads more like a business brief than a hook. Try to find something that's catchy or surprising. That 400% increase in sales, for example, is hooky. A hook could also be made out of the historical details.

 * Symbol possible vote.svg I've struck the hook as I concur with Yoninah that the hook is not appropriate. Please propose a new hook. In addition, no major edits have been done to the article since the review: please make the necessary edits. Finally, the sentence "In 1959 a consortium owned by the company Kronans Droghandel was bought." is unreferenced. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 13:04, 6 June 2018 (UTC)

 * I've left a final message on the nominator's talk page. Let's wait and see if he will reply; if he doesn't reply in a few days to a week, then this nomination can be closed. Note though that the nominator has not edited since the 21st. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:22, 24 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Symbol delete vote.svg Editor has still not replied to talk page messages and has not edited since June 25. Endorsing Yoninah's marking for closure. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 12:43, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
