 * At first glance, the article appears to have quite a few grammatical errors, some of which make sentences unclear. I'll do a more thorough search in a second and point out specific issues.-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 14:43, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg I've done some copy-editing, but there are some issues left that I haven't been able to fix. Specifically, the following issues will likely need to be addressed before this is eligible for DYK:
 * None of the sources in the History section seem to mention Nedunchezhiyan's age when he died or his birth date
 * "During this legal battle, many activists and writers in Tamil Nadu joined the organisation" isn't sourced
 * I'm a bit confused about the relationship to the People's Movement Against Nuclear Energy; the article says that the PMANE protested against the nuclear plant and was given legal support, but what does this have to do with Poovulagin Nanbargal and why would it cause activists and writers to join the Poovulagin Nanbargal?
 * Are you sure that this source says that the organisation publishes poems about ecology and the Green Revolution in India? To me it doesn't seem like it, but I'm not certain as I don't speak the language.
 * The last sentence in the section Publication is grammatically incorrect. I assume you mean that the company currently publishes the two magazines? I wanted to check in with you before correcting it.
 * Source 8 is the only source placed after the claim against the government's decision on projects such as the Kaveri delta coal-bed methane project, but it doesn't seem to support the fact.
 * The article is interesting overall, and certainly notable, so your creation and expansion of it is greatly appreciated. However, I can't approve this until these issues are addressed. Thanks!-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 16:08, 10 January 2019 (UTC)


 * I added a source.
 * I removed the unsourced sentence. The sentence what I tried to wrote like - after it filled the case only the mass media talked about the organisation and it reached general public in the state, at that time more people joined the organisation including writers and activists. I am unable to get better source, I have only blogs to support the sentence. I will add again if I get reliable source.
 * PMANE protested against the plant and Poovulagin Nanbargal gave legal support to PMANE. As mentioned above, organisation expanded after the legal case, previously it was known as a publisher to small group of people.
 * Yes, Tamil source mentioned the same and I added a English source. They have so far published 25 titles on issues such as the dangers of plastic, and the effects of Green Revolution on our soil, among others.
 * I corrected the sentence. Please check it.
 * I rewrote the sentence.
 * Thanks for the review. Gfosankar (talk) 06:22, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the modifications. I made some more copy-edits to the article and will now be doing a more thorough look to see if this is DYK-ready.-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 15:14, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
 * For number 5, the source still doesn't seem to support what the article says. I don't see where this explicitly mentions the Kaveri delta coal-bed methane project.-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 15:20, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Kaveri delta coal-bed methane project is the article which related to the extraction of methane/ hydrocarbon/ shale gas projects in Tamil Nadu. Gfosankar (talk) 03:26, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not really clear on what you're saying, I'm afraid. Kaveri delta coal-bed methane project was a single specific project and the source doesn't mention that project in specific.-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 04:41, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Kaveri delta coal-bed methane project is updated. Gfosankar (talk) 12:22, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I'm still a bit confused. Even if it's a series of projects, it doesn't cover every methane gas and hydrocarbon project there is and the source doesn't mention that series of projects in specific. It could also be that I'm just being oblivious to something obvious. :)-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 23:45, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I removed that source and added new one to specify. Gfosankar (talk) 03:39, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

I'm back, sorry for the delay. :) I've made a few tweaks to the article myself, and I think the rest of the issues I've noticed would be okay to not worry about, as perfectness is not a requirement for DYK. As for the project/link thing, I'm afraid I still don't understand what you're saying and that my point still stands, but I do think it's outside the scope of DYK so not worth pursuing here.

Anyways, full review here: new/long enough, policy compliant, and no copyvio or close para that I can see. Hook is interesting, cited, with no obvious problems. I prefer the original hook as it seems more interesting; not everyone knows who Masanobu Fukuoka is and The One-Straw Revolution does not have a non-redirect article. QPQ has been done and no image is used. Good to go; thank you for your work on this article!-- SkyGazer 512 Oh no, what did I do this time? 03:20, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
