Zong massacre

 * Nominator(s): Celuici (talk) 20:15, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

This is a comprehensive and detailed article. It is based on a number of reliable sources. I think it's well-written and interesting. This is my first FA nomination. Celuici (talk) 20:15, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

Comment I'll post a review of this article over the weekend. Nick-D (talk) 10:48, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I've ended up with a lot less spare time than I thought I'd have and won't be able to review this article. For what it's worth, it looks in very good shape. Nick-D (talk) 10:05, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

Image review
 * File:Slave-ship.jpg: can we be more specific on source/photographer? Nikkimaria (talk) 14:12, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Support on prose per standard disclaimer. These are my edits. - Dank (push to talk) 11:51, 24 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Support. In addition to the prose as noted above, high-quality overall and quite thorough. I like the structural formatting and the referencing is meticulous. Excellent efforts on this quality improvement project for an article of such vital value for readers and editors alike. High encyclopedic value. High educational value. &mdash; Cirt (talk) 22:07, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Delegate comments -- Hi Celuici, a belated welcome to FAC on behalf of the delegates. I usually like to see a spotcheck of sources for new nominees' work but I note that one was performed at GAN. I've also inspected the citations/references and they look fine. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 05:17, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
