I will attempt to review this. I will use this existing good article as something of a reference. Not to discourage you, but I think your article focuses a little too much on their modern status, and contains relatively little actual history. It may be best to split it into separate articles. I would hate to quickfail it, but it will need a lot of work. As soon as I can, I will try to have a list of specific recommendations. --An anonymous username, not my real name (talk) 21:10, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Hmmm, after reading it over some more I'm afraid it doesn't give broad enough coverage; again, it focuses largely on modern Jewish Hong Kongers. I am requesting a second opinion, but I'm leaning towards quickfailing it. --An anonymous username, not my real name (talk) 23:42, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Would the issue be fixed if the article was renamed to "Jews in Hong Kong" (similar to Jews in Istanbul)? The Jewish community of Hong Kong was tiny before the late 20th century, so there's not really any room to broaden the topic of history any more than what's already in the article. — Golden call me maybe? 08:44, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
Yes, I think renaming it would make more sense. I guess perhaps I overreacted. I will work on a full review. --An anonymous username, not my real name (talk) 21:24, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
Alright, I will rename the article to "Jews in Hong Kong" tomorrow (not today to avoid any possible technical issues with its current display at the Main Page as a DYK). Have a good day! — Golden call me maybe? 21:29, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
I've now moved the article to "Jews in Hong Kong". — Golden call me maybe? 15:29, 17 February 2022 (UTC)
I strenuously object to this move. Golden, while your work on this article certainly merits praise and thanks from the community, I think your move was extremely hasty, and I urge you to consider undoing it and opening a proper move proposal instead. Thank you! Joefromrandb (talk) 06:33, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
@Joefromrandb - Sorry, just saw this. Sure, I can move it back and have an RM. — Golden call me maybe? 10:27, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Would this article benefit from including Template:Jews and Judaism sidebar? Some similar articles about Jewish communities in particular locations have the template (History of the Jews in China, American Jews, History of the Jews in Alexandria) and some don't (History of the Jews in New York City, History of the Jews in Moscow).

I imagine Jews and Judaism sidebar would be much more relevant than the current Ethnicity in Hong Kong sidebar, which doesn't even list the Jews. Having them both would look too messy, so I've now replaced one with the other. — Golden call me maybe? 08:03, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Just a heads up that I'll be copyediting this article in response to the request to the Guild of Copy Editors, if anyone has questions/comments. MadameOctavian (talk) 12:05, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

@MadameOctavian: Hi. It's been a week, so I wanted to check in. Are you still willing to copyedit? — Golden call me maybe? 23:17, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
Yep all good to continue! Haven't had time in the last few days since my last edits on the 26th but will get on it. Have done the lead and most of the history section at this point. MadameOctavian (talk) 23:52, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
Update, copy-edit is done! MadameOctavian (talk) 12:02, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
@MadameOctavian: Thank you for the amazing work! — Golden call me maybe? 12:06, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

The article is currently organised with the main headings 'History' (including 19th-20th century) and then 'Current Situation'. The name of 'Current situation' is problematic because it  dates the article. 
My suggestions are that 

the first section of 'Current situation' (which mostly refers to the 21st century, except for the reference to the Jewish Community Centre being built in 1995) be moved to the end of 'History', under a '21st Century' subheading.
the subheadings that are under 'Current Situation' could be promoted to level 2 headings. Another reason I suggest this is that a lot of the content under 'Current Situation' is actually about stuff that happened in the 20th century (especially under 'Culture and Sports' and 'Education'), so  it wouldn't make sense to nest those sections under '21st Century'.
Wanted to get consensus before making a big structural change like that :) MadameOctavian (talk) 07:08, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

I'm okay with that. — Golden call me maybe? 09:07, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
Awesome, done! I've left 'Cuisine' as a level 3 heading under 'Culture and sports' since it was quite short and it makes sense to nest it under 'culture' anyway I think. MadameOctavian (talk) 07:09, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
