• Oppose and suggesting withdrawal: Hi there! Correct me if I am wrong, but I think this is your first FA nomination. I see that you have made
  PR, and re-nominate later. Currently, it does not meet various criteria. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 07:19, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply

• Oppose This article has good structure, but relies way too heavily on the actual court cases (
  WP:PRIMARY sources) and seems to cite zero legal scholarship, of which there is abundance. This needs weeks of work, and the nomination should be preferably carried out by someone with demonstrated familiarity with most of the sources cited. -Indy beetle (talk) 09:21, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply

• Closing note: This
  WP:FAC/ar, and leave the {{featured article candidates}} template in place on the talk page until the bot
