Hello Closed Limelike Curves and thanks for all your improvements to this article. However, despite the improvements, the article fails criterion 2b since there are too many unreferenced paragraphs and a whole section lacks references. Examples are the section "Common misconceptions" and the paragraphs starting with "Arrow's theorem falls under the branch of welfare economics", "Arrow defines IIA slightly differently, by stating", and "Arrow's requirement that the social preference". According to criterion 2b, these passages require inline citations "no later than the end of the paragraph". The unreferenced section has the maintenance tag "Unreferenced section" and there are overall 6 "citation needed" maintenance tags in the article. I suggest that you add all the relevant references before a renomination.

A few other observations

  • WP:EARWIG detects no copyright violations
  • Arrow's requirement that the social preference only depend on replace "depend" with "depends"
  • expressing social welfare, leading him focus his theorem on preference rankings add "to" before "focus"
  • https://electionscience.github.io/vse-sim/ is probably an unreliable source
