@Esculenta Thanks. All done! Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:18, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • lead is too short
  • "Private life" section/subsection is repeated
  • "the prototype for Iki from the novel" is Iki a character in the novel? Probably best to clarify
  • "According to Frycie, in his works for young adults, Broszkiewicz exposed moral values such as resourcefulness, wisdom, nobility, and courage, and combined various narrative techniques, genres, and literary conventions" it's not a standard English convention to give quotes in italics (instance later too)
  • is the publications list complete? If it is, should say so with source (else "Selected publications")
  • "Notably" see WP:WTW

Third opinion

@Piotrus: Hi again, I'm going through the eldest nominations and liked my experience with our previous review. I made minor edits myself mostly reshaffled words and changed commas. We can discuss the changes here if they are controversial. —LastJabberwocky (Rrarr) 11:19, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I spotchecked some of the links, checked whether the polish titles are translated into english, and assessed broadness. All good! Thank you for you work, closing my review. —LastJabberwocky (Rrarr) 17:34, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • I will review this nomination. – Editør (talk) 13:27, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article is new enough (GA on 12 May 2025), is long enough (6398 characters), has no copyright issues (per GA review), and is presentable (per GA review and readthrough). It is not clear to me from the two links to mostly Polish-language sources how the hook is supported by these, could you quote specific sentences? The hook is short enough and interesting, but it made me click on "louse-feeder" before "Jerzy Broszkiewicz", therefore it is probably not the most suitable hook to feature the boldlinked article in the DYK section. Could you come up with an alternative hook that draws more attention to "Jerzy Broszkiewicz" instead? QPQ is done. The image is used in the article, but it is a low-quality scan of a rasterized photo where parts of the face are cropped out, so I don't think it is suitable. – Editør (talk) 14:06, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Editør: Regarding linking "a louse-feeder", I am not aware of a DYK rule that prevents us from linking other interesting articles (if there is one, we can delink it). Otherwise I don't see a problem if folks learn about this from the hook, although yes, if we want to maximize hook rather than all article views, I can see the issue. I am fine with it being delinked in promotion. I am not sure what is the problem with the sources otherwise. Him being a louse feeder is sourced to an English online source linked above ([1]). Him being "a youth literature and drama writer" after the war, which is a basic part of his bio, is also sourced to an English language source (his biography in [2]). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:39, 25 May 2025 (UTC) PS. I noticed the second link is to a pl source; this is not a problem in the current era of two-click page translations in browsers, but in case it helps, here's an alt source in English: [3] (" Polish journalist and writer whose sf works for younger readers... he wrote several dozen dramas and novels). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:41, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      I checked the DYK guidelines and it doesn't seem explicitly forbidden to purposefully direct readers to another article than the boldlinked one. However WP:DYKMAJOR says: "The boldlinked article should generally be the main or at least a major factor in the hook," and I was using the same reasoning as WP:DYKDIVERT about images: "Try to avoid images that divert readers from the bolded article into a side article (...) DYK wants to show readers its new and expanded content, and images can be detrimental to that purpose if not used carefully."
      The first source is mostly Polish, with some English, but doesn't contain the word "louse-feeder" or "louse", so here I still need a quote for that. The second source is entirely in Polish, but the quote from the third source supports the writer part, so that is alright. – Editør (talk) 10:42, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
