- Well, given that I was the GA reviewer, this should be easy as I'm super-familiar with the article and its sources. The only thing I haven't done is run Earwig at the time of the GA review as from my reading, it was all original prose. I shall do so now. Question to Onegreatjoke – why didn't you nominate it with a photo? That's of high quality and appropriately licensed. Schwede66 01:17, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
- Well in case your wondering Schwede66, I don't normally do images for biographical articles because when I think of main page images I don't normally associate them with self-portraits of people for some reason. Onegreatjoke (talk) 01:23, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
Earwig is clean (the one thing that shows up at 20% contains a quote within the prose). QPQ has been done. It's a new GA that meets all the DYK requirements. Both hooks are cited (AGF as the source is behind a paywall but the high number of papers with more than 500 citations is something that I remember reading in another obituary, too. Similarly the Bcl-2 gene; that's what made him famous); I find ALT1 more interesting. The photo is suitably licensed (I've tweaked the caption). Good to go. Schwede66 03:12, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
