5x expanded by Holmelte (talk) and Significa liberdade (talk). Nominated by Significa liberdade (talk) at 04:32, 22 October 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Donald A. Morgan; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Hiya, Significa liberdade! The article is 5x expanded (as stated above,) is at sufficient length, well-sourced, no NPOV issues, and Earwig only flags the awards' names and other false positives. All three hooks are sourced and interesting, though honestly I'll have to go with ALT1 as becoming "the first director of photography to be inducted into the Television Hall of Fame" stands out to me. Good work! Tails Wx 02:21, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Tails Wx! I also just realized my typo in ALT0 if it matters. As of 2021, he was the most *decorated* Black person at the Emmys. Whoops. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 14:27, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I was confused by that. I'll still go with ALT1, though. Thanks! Tails Wx 15:32, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
