General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation

QPQ: No - Not done
Overall: Waiting on the QPQ and some prose refinement as suggested above. I expect the hooks will need to be updated soon, as well. SounderBruce 03:23, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

  • @SounderBruce: - I attempted to refine the prose around that issue you raised, is it a little better? Connormah (talk) 05:01, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Looks much better. There's an unreferenced sentence at the end of that paragraph that needs to be resolved before I can approve this. SounderBruce 05:27, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Update. While some members filling unexpired terms (Mary Gay Scanlon for instance) were sworn in today, Jones was not, and may not be sworn in until after Thanksgiving. Seems she's planning on going through with concurrent service in the U.S. House and Detroit City Council. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:01, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Okay, this looks good to go now, but please ping me on my talk page if the situation is updated. SounderBruce 08:10, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Updating hooks. She was sworn into the US House yesterday without having to resign from the Detroit City Council. Main hook is if it is posted to the main page before January 3, alt hook is if it is posted to the main page after January 3. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:29, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the update. Approving the new ALT0 to run before January 3...if it isn't in the queues by then, I'd ask for a special date request. SounderBruce 05:58, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
