  • Comment ALT2 or the original preferred to ALT1. Text of article makes clear what "examined in surgery" means. I am doing another DYK review as my QPQ, but if I finish that one and yours still unclaimed by a reviewer I will return. David notMD (talk) 17:41, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: No - ?
  • Interesting: Yes
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article was moved to mainspace on December 5 and nominated within seven days. Length is adequate and the article is neutral in tone. Article meets almost all sourcing requirements. Page numbers are needed for the two PDF files used to verify the information. No plagiarism issues detected. Image used for Watson is appropriately licensed as fair use. QPQ requirement was completed by what appears to be a previous alias for this nominator. Each of the three hooks are reasonably interesting. ALT0 and ALT2 are verified with the cited source. ALT1 requires a page number as noted aboved. Overall, the article is well written and only one minor concern was noted. Flibirigit (talk) 04:14, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Article now meets all requirements for sourcing, and the nomination meets all DYK requirements. All three hooks approved as properly cited, mentioned inline and reasonably interesting. Flibirigit (talk) 16:21, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
