 * Symbol confirmed.svg Date if creation is Ocotber 21, article is 1858 characters long, hook is 105, ninemsn ref seems fine for it, no copyvio/neutrality issues. Good to go.  Lajbi  Holla @ me  •  CP  15:55, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg I have problems with the hook. Clemons isn't developing research to find a cure for cancer, he's directly researching nanoparticles and a way to deliver them for targeted medical (drug) therapies: cancer is one application (and naturally the one picked up by a newspaper), but central nervous system damage seems to be the central one being investigated based on the university source. Saying his research is "to find a cure for cancer" is stretching things; besides, it's even more intriguing to bring nanotechnologies or nanoparticles in, especially since his research is specifically on nanoparticles.

 * ALT1 ... that Australian field hockey goalkeeper Tristan Clemons is developing research to using nanotechnology that may lead to finding a cure for cancer?

Alternative proposed. --LauraHale (talk) 23:54, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I did a little editing of the key sentence in the article, and have a different ALT to suggest that avoids the "developing research" wording:
 * ALT2 ... that Australian field hockey goalkeeper Tristan Clemons is researching nanoparticles that could treat injuries and fight cancer? —BlueMoonset (talk) 00:39, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
 * ALT2 is perfect if you ask me. -- Cheers, Riley   Huntley  14:49, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
