Cerebellum, hi. In a word, no.. As I said in my note on their talk page, "Particularly, every quotation needs a footnote." There are numerous quotes still without citations. In addition, if you look at
WP:CIT, there is not enough information in the footnotes to pass
WP:VERIFY.

Onel5969 I must be missing something. The quote in "Sealed Letter" is sourced to Boyce. The three quotes in "Coptic text" are all sourced to Gardner, as indicated by "Gardner published three fragments of letters". The quote in "Paraphrase in Latin and Chinese" is sourced to Jing Zang. --

Cerebellum, I don't think simply attributing something to a book is sufficient. If we were sourcing something which was contained in The Iliad, we wouldn't simply put The Iliad by Homer. We'd at least require page numbers.

Onel5969 All that for AfC?? I think you and I fundamentally disagree. My reading of
WP:AFCPURPOSE tells me that if an article has a >50% chance of surviving AfD, I should accept it, we can worry about content issues in mainspace. But I'm sure I won't change your mind so I'll let it go and let another reviewer decide on this particular article. --

Cerebellum, If this was a spanking brand new article, I'd agree. But it had been tagged for almost two months without the issue being addressed. I'm not a big fan of perma-tagged articles. If I had passed this as "reviewed", there was every indication that this is what it would become.
