::*[[File:Symbol possible vote.svg|16px]] I've just pinged Thine Antique Pen for a response, though without much hope as it's been a full month since TAP's last edit. I think the article could use a copyedit. The hook might be finessed by adding "a poll showing" after "despite", but I think the sweeping use of "the government" in the hook and article is not warranted by the source: that usually refers to the prime minister and other ministers, while the source only mentions it being introduced by a minority party in parliament, and while it passed the parliament initially, there's no indication that the current government is actively supporting it. (I'd also like those more recent sources violet/riga was asking for.) If there isn't action soon, I don't think we'll have any choice but to close the nomination as unsuccessful.

Abortion in Lithuania
- ... that despite 84 percent of Lithuanians supporting abortion, the government is taking steps towards banning it?
Moved to mainspace by Thine Antique Pen (talk). Self nominated at 19:14, 27 September 2013 (UTC).
Most things check out. My one concern is whether or not these "steps towards banning it" have progressed in the four months since the source was published - is the article still sufficiently up-to-date? Additional and recent sources may be difficult to come by. violet/riga [talk] 20:33, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
I would rather not have the exact figure on the main page without at least some hedging; see talk page for details. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 18:46, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
