Sesame allergy

  • ... that because of the prevalence of sesame allergy, mandatory food labeling for allergens already include sesame seeds and oil in the European Union countries and Canada, and will become mandatory in the United States on January 1, 2023? Source: Ref 58 (European developments in labelling allergenic foods), ref 57 (Sesame - A priority food allergen) and ref 14 (Food Allergy Safety, Treatment, Education, and Research Act of 2021 or the FASTER Act of 2021)

Improved to Good Article status by David notMD (talk). Self-nominated at 09:03, 10 September 2022 (UTC).

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: Yes
  • Interesting: Yes
  • Other problems: No - too long
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Well, it looks like "allergy" is slowly on the way to a WP:GOODTOPIC. Another meticulously researched article, little surprise there since it's by you :) Interestingly, Earwig's now picks a few things up (unlike during the GA review), but at least one of them is kind enough to mention Wikipedia as its source. The only issue is hook length: Currently, our tool counts 235 characters, which is clearly over the maximum of 200 allowed. @David notMD can you shorten it? I think that should be possible; otherwise you can suggest another hook angle. –LordPeterII (talk) 18:33, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

ALT1 fits the characters limit. David notMD (talk) 00:32, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
Yes, that's clearly below the limit. Approve. –LordPeterII (talk) 10:46, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
