Well-written
- the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct
- it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation
- not a requirement for GA, but I think the "personal life" section, being so short, could be merged into the "early life" section and turned into "early and personal life" or something along those lines. I'm not sure what the MOS (or WP guideline etc) is for the "achievements" box, but it might be better as a subsection of the "career" section rather than entirely as its own section. let me know what you think.
- I flipped through the other athletics GAs; all of them with a table like that had it as its own achievements section, so I'll probably defer to that convention for this. Good idea that the personal life can be merged; I did so. - G

Verifiable with no original research
- it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline
- reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose)
- can't access some of the sources, but the ones I checked all have good text-source integrity. I rearranged a couple of cites to match the text more closely.
- Oh nice, thank you. - G
- can't access some of the sources, but the ones I checked all have good text-source integrity. I rearranged a couple of cites to match the text more closely.
- it contains no original research
- it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism
Broad in its coverage
- it addresses the main aspects of the topic
- it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style)
Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each
- excellent job with an article that's both a BLP & ARBPIA-related :)
Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute
Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio
- media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content
- media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions
- I like the photo of Nuseirat camp; it gives good context.
- @Arconning @Generalissima I've done my initial review; I'll continue looking through it in case I notice anything else, but overall it's a really solid article. I've got a couple of non-strictly-binding suggestions. Thanks for your nomination! sawyer * he/they * talk 02:20, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Sawyer-mcdonell: Rad, responded to your feedback. Generalissima (talk) 03:12, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
- Awesome, looks great. Congrats guys! sawyer * he/they * talk 03:18, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

QPQ: None required. |
Overall: Everything looks good. Approving. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:54, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
- @BeanieFan11, Arconning, and Generalissima: I will use ALT1 but I have to tweak the hook to say olympic runner instead of professional runner.
- ALT1a: ... that Majed Abu Maraheel, the first Palestinian Olympian, tended flowers for a living before becoming an Olympic runner?
- The article did not say he was a professional. Also in regard to ALT0 since our article says "barefoot from his home in Gaza City to catch a bus" I cannot use the hook that says the barefoot running was specific to training for the 10,000 metre run. Bruxton (talk) 16:55, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
