New text seven days old or less can only count toward the 1500 character minimum in one article; if it is duplicated in other nominated new articles, it is ignored for the purpose of character count.(It it had been over seven days old, then the expansion would be required.) So in this case, the copied characters, being duplicated from from George Floyd protests in New York (state)#Niagara Square police violence incident in Buffalo police shoving incident are excluded from the total count of the latter, but that total count of the rest of the article just needs to hit the 1500 minimum. At this point, it's large enough regardless of the counting method, but had it not been expanded, it would still be long enough. BlueMoonset ( talk) 22:08, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Overall:
Earwig throwing up some stuff but it's direct quotations and the Trump tweet so no copyvio. Since there are pics, do you want to add one? Just a thought. As another comment, I find it a bit jarring that some quotations are wikilinked eg "serious but stable condition" →
Medical state and "were simply following orders" and "simply doing their job" →
Superior orders. This seems a bit like editorialisation, in contrast to "Black Lives Matter" →
Black Lives Matter which seems like a straightforward link.

the Buffalo police department issued a false claim, or that
President Donald Trump spread false and unfounded conspiracy theories in his response to the incident on Twitter, using news outlets as verification, is unacceptable. There has not been a criminal trial, but I don't see the word "allegedly" being used anywhere except in the headline of The Washington Post. (It is absolutely mandatory in the hook.) I think you can tone down the inflammatory language in the hook without losing clicks. Thanks, Yoninah ( talk) 22:32, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

The idea is good Yoninah, except that it misses the significance of the shove, which was that somebody was seriously injured. How about something like:
pushing a 75-year-old man to the ground, and using news sources to prove that this is what it happened, is unacceptable. They were charged with assault, but pleaded not guilty. This is clearly a case of trial by newspaper. Yoninah ( talk) 16:10, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
ALT0? good to go. The hook and title are fine and certainly within
Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines. The backbone of Wikipedia is
Wikipedia:Verifiability backed by
Wikipedia:Reliable sources and this article and its hook are above and beyond compliance.
