:ALT2a is really good. I have however seen some typos in the article, for example "At major issue was" instead of "a major issue was".

 +
* Thorough citation is good, but review [[WP:CITEDENSE]]; quite a few of your footnotes would be fine merely being at the end of the paragraph.
 +
* You have a tendency to [[WP:OVERLINK]]. For example, outside of discussion of economic theory it's usually not necessary to link something like "profit".
 +
* Take care with what you cite. If you cite a chapter in an edited volume, for example, you should be citing the chapter title. (If it's a chapter from a [[monograph]] it's not necessary.) The editor of the volume is not an author of that chapter.
 +
* External links to catalogs like Worldcat aren't that useful; mainly link if (partial) access to the text is available.
 +
* Expand the lead; it should summarize what's in the article so it can be a bit longer.
 +
I think this is ready for promotion.

Swedish Levant Company

Moved to mainspace by Bkissin (talk). Nominated by MJL (talk) at 02:04, 24 May 2019 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg I'll do a full review soon, but right now I have concerns about both hooks: they're not exactly eye-catching or hooky. Like, instead of saying that the creation of the company was controversial, it might be a good idea to include the context for that in the hook. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:45, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
I also have to note that, while you have done a QPQ, as you have less than five DYK nominations, you are not required to do a QPQ (you can still do one of course if you want, it's just optional right now). Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:49, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
I figured it'd be the polite thing to do Face-smile.svgMJLTalk 02:52, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
