Good Article review question

[edit]

Hi there, I've been keeping an eye on the Good Article drive and trying to learn as much as I can about how Good Article reviewing works in practice. I saw your review of Jews in the civil rights movement, and one thing that caught my eye was you suggested that an instance of 'said' should be changed to 'claimed'. I wondered if you're aware of MOS:SAID (and the related WP:ELEVAR? I had read them for the first time yesterday so they were still fresh in mind when I saw this aspect of your review. I hope this comment doesn't cause any offence, it comes from a place of good intent. best regards JustAnotherCompanion (talk) 03:15, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No offense taken whatsoever. I replaced "claimed" with "stated". Thank you for the suggestion Kimikel (talk) 03:35, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
