Right off the bat, the article is not long enough and falls well below the minimum threshold of 1500 characters. That unfortunately means the article will have to be rejected.

This appears to be the nominator's first nomination, so I don't think we should close this nomination just yet. Right now the article is just under 1000 characters, so 1500 shouldn't be too hard to reach. @
Glorious Engine: Will you be able to expand the article further?

Indeed, I'll review the nomination later tonight. Thanks for the ping!

Sorry for the inconvenience, I won't be able to review this nomination. Could anyone else take this nomination?

I'm going to ask
Juxlos if he's willing to be included as a co-creator due to the expansion he did (disclosure: he edited the article after I notified him about the article on Discord). Due to this, I'm not sure if I can take over reviewing here.

New reviewer needed; previous one is unable to do a full review.

New, long enough, properly cited and written, no plagiarism. I took the liberty of correcting some leftover grammatical errors and tweaked phrasing for coherent flow, also added some context for the causal reader -- please make sure to check if Yoshizumi was indeed fighting the Dutch (it could not have been the Japanese Army in 1948, and I doubt
Japanese holdouts were on the anti-Indonesian side). QPQ does not appear to be required. The proposed hook is ungrammatical, I'm afraid, and doesn't really highlight the interesting tidbit. I propose:
@
Dahn: New alt looks good - which part so you mean by 1948?

@
Juxlos: Well, it says in the article that he died in 1948, and I think this is also in the source used. The article also stated that he died fighting the Japanese army, which is very very very unlikely; he was probably killed in combat with the KNIL, but the source used doesn't spell that out (probably because it is implicit?).

@
Dahn: Technically only KNIL would be possible - but for all we know, he was killed in an accident or by other armed groups of that era. Just to be safe, I removed the details and just mentioned what the sources are "sure" about.

Speaking of which I just found a new source of sorts, so the article might change a bit.

Juxlos: Great. I'll have a looksie when you've incorporated it. And thank you!

@
Dahn: I sort of overran it a bit but I think the new sources should be done now.
