Article is new enough and long enough. It is presentable, well-sourced, written neutrally, and BLP-compliant. Earwig looks good. The hook is cited and interesting. QPQ is not required. The article's image is freely licensed. @CaptainAngus: The hook phrase "protesting against ongoing proposed voter restrictions" reads a little awkward to me. I suggest dropping the "against ongoing" or something like "...that Melanie L. Campbell was arrested for civil disobedience while protesting proposed restrictions on voting rights?" gobonobo ⁺ ^c 16:55, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gobonobo: I'm good with your suggested streamlining! Thank you very much! CaptainAngus (talk) 22:24, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
