talk). Self-nominated at 11:47, 3 September 2021 (UTC).
Article meets length and age requirements, article aligns with policies, and the hook is cited properly. QPQ review not yet conducted. Recommend adding the time period to the hook. I recommend also noting—perhaps in an alternate hook—whether the community gardening movement inspired was in the United States or worldwide. Let me know when ready and I'll come back and recheck.
@
Airborne84: QPQ done/underway. Added time period. It seems I have lost access to the book which made that claim directly about starting the community gardening movement. I've added ALT1 with just the first part of the hook, which seems "hooky" enough as it is. Thanks. — Rhododendritestalk \\ 16:43, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
Thanks. Please note which article you conducted the QPQ review on.

Shows how long I looked at the nomination @
Rhododendrites:. Indeed it was there, apologies. I think your original hook was sourced though. This source on the
History of the Community Gardening Movement says that the noted activity "not only beautified formerly vacant lots but soon became a grassroots program that fostered neighborhood participation." Is that what you were looking for?

There was another source which stated it more clearly (community garden movement). My assumption is it's that Avant Gardening book that I don't seem to have preview access through gbooks anymore somehow. I'd rather just err on the side of leaving it off, I suppose. — Rhododendritestalk \\ 03:11, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
OK, passing with my support for ALT1. I think the community gardening movement bit would definitely be interesting to some readers, but I suspect the rest of the material is similar enough to draw them in as well. Thanks for your work on this.
