... that the Natives Representative Council held meetings in school halls?

Source: "Instead, the first session was postponed for six months from August to December 1937 when it was held in a cramped Pretoria school hall and addressed by the deputy prime minister General Smuts. This set the tone for subsequent sessions that were always held in dingy halls around Pretoria (Rich, 1996)."

Reviewing this, new article and no copyvio according to Earwig. No QPQ needed as this is first nom, the sentence also cited in the article. However I have one suggestion for the prep to maybe truncate it to just "held meetings in school halls" as the other part feels subjective and not stated outright in the source. Otherwise it's good to go for me. Nyanardsan (talk) 12:08, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
