[edit] Hrant Dink

I'm nominating this article for featured article because even though it is relatively new, it is greatly sourced and written. The only problem is that assasination and below take up more than half the article, but the article can't get much bigger. ''[[User:Kitia|Kitia]]'' 23:57, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Comment Might I recommend that the assassination section be split into a separate article? Some sections, namely the reactions from countries/individuals, would be better off in an article titled the Assassination of Hrant Dink. Nishkid64 (talk) 06:34, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

• Oppose Not well written. A few short paragraphs with only one sentence, too many quotes, "Reactions" should not be a list. "Trial" section has a tag saying it needs expansion. I see two ^{[citation needed]} tags and a couple of unreferenced paragraphs: "Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan confirmed that the alleged assassin Ogün Samast had been captured, with the assassination weapon on him." and "Columns in Turkish newspapers included Armenian in transliteration: Ahparik, Ahparik! [Armenian for "brother, brother!"] by Hadi Uluengin in Hürriyet, and Tsidesutyun Paregamis! [Farewell My Friend!] by Can Dundar in Milliyet." --Kaypoh (talk) 09:04, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
• Query seems well written, but what can you tell me about NPOV concerns?--Keerllston 22:17, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
