Hello! I'll be taking a look at this article for the January 2022 GAN backlog drive. If you haven't already signed up, please feel free to join in! Although QPQ is not required, if you're feeling generous, I also have a list of GA nominations of my own right here.


### Infobox and lede
Comma after "In the book"
Done
"criticizes pacifism within the climate movement as well as "climate fatalism" outside it." → "criticizes both pacifism within the climate movement and "climate fatalism" outside of it."
Done
Delink pacifism and sabotage in the second paragraph, as they were already linked above
Done


### Background
Don't use "spring 2018" as a descriptor, per MOS:SEASON
Same with "summer of the same year"
These are Malm's own fault, since they're from an interview with him. I switched to "in the first half of 2018" and "later that year" since he's almost certainly referring to Northern Hemisphere seasons.
""was in total despair mode."" → ""was in total depair mode"." per MOS:LQ
Done
"expected to be arguing" → "expected to argue"
Done
Verso Books should be linked in the body
Done


### Synopsis
#### Learning from Past Struggles
Delink "non-violence", as it has already been linked above
Done


#### Breaking the Spell
""long and venerable tradition of sabotaging fossil fuel infrastructure,"" → ""long and venerable tradition of sabotaging fossil fuel infrastructure"," per MOS:LQ
Done
""insufficient politicisation of the climate crisis."" → ""insufficient politicisation of the climate crisis"." per MOS:LQ
Done
""we must insist on it being different in kind from the violence that hits a human (or an animal) in the face,"" → ""we must insist on it being different in kind from the violence that hits a human (or an animal) in the face"," per MOS:LQ
Done


#### Fighting Despair
""an eminently understandable emotional response to the crisis, but unserviceable as a response for a politics in it."" → ""an eminently understandable emotional response to the crisis, but unserviceable as a response for a politics in it"." per MOS:LQ
Done
Continued LQ issues throughout: even if the end of a sentence is included in the quote, the period should only be inside the quote if the entire sentence is being quoted
Done


### Reception
#### Reviews
LQ issues noted above
Done
"for blowing anything up" → "for creating explosions" as both a paraphrase and to avoid ending a sentence with a preposition
Done


#### By notable figures
Good outside of LQ issues noted above
Issues fixed


#### Opposition
LQ issues noted above
Issues fixed
No comma needed after "in September 2021" unless you swap "and spoke" for "speaking"
Removed
No need to add the specification about the New Yorker Radio Hour in the third paragraph, as it was already detailed in the second
Removed and reworded


#### Cover
Good


### References
Good


### General comments
Images are properly licensed and relevant
No stability concerns in the revision history
Earwig tweaked out on me, but considering most of the quotes are direct, I'm going to AGF
That's all from me! Mostly minor, quick issues. Ping me with questions, and let me know when you're finished! — GhostRiver 16:02, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks so much for the review and especially the MOS:LQ lessons, GhostRiver! Changes made. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 17:59, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
I feel that LQ only really makes sense after you've had to correct yourself over and over (like lots of our MOS quirks). In any case, everything looks good on my end, passing now! — GhostRiver 16:56, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
