  • Doesn't this article need {{zh}}, {{Chinese}}, etc.?
  • I think the visa requirements link would be much better in the restrictions section, and the passport in the rights and privileges.
    • Moved to those sections as See also links. Horserice (talk) 07:33, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The status itself does not grant right of abode in either the United Kingdom or Hong Kong, but most BN(O)s possess either the right of abode or right to land in Hong Kong." Before the existence of the BN(O)?
    • Clarified that they would have had residency when applying. Horserice (talk) 07:33, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • MOS:NUMERAL: Write out integers less than nine.
  • How many Hongkongers still hold this nationality?
  • Assuming good faith on the offline sources, but it would be nice to have accessdates for all online sources.
    • Added access dates for everything except sources with ISBN or DOI references. Also did not add for law citations because it doesn't seem to be the norm to do that for them, judging from all existing law citation templates and also ones already used in this article.

Should be it unless I find something else. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 05:48, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • MOS:LEADCITE: The lead shouldn't have any citations, unless that's the only use of the source.
  • "Becoming a British National (Overseas) is no longer possible.[2] Acquisition was not an automatic process and eligible residents must have applied for the status between 1 July 1987 and the end of the registration period.[2]" Remove the reference in the middle, since both point to the same source.

Fix these minor issues and I'll pass it. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 22:50, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
