- Good to go. Very well written article. Chris (talk) 20:11, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

A more complete review is needed as not all of the DYK criteria have been checked. Simply saying "good to go" without additional context is insufficient for reviewing purposes. Courtesy ping @Miller17CU94:. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 08:44, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

- Per request and review. The article was created less than a week ago, contains 51k characters. The sourcing is adequate, neutral, and avoids plagarism. The hook is cited, interesting, and short enough to meet the required criteria. Chris (talk) 22:56, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, but the hook is more narrative than hook. Could you write this in a hookier way, or provide a different angle? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 12:41, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah: Done MWright96 (talk) 13:01, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

@MWright96: I restored the thread. How is that any different? The only part that's interesting is the 200th win. Meanwhile, there are too many numbers in the hook. Yoninah (talk) 16:37, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah: After review, I am unable to come up with an alternative hook. MWright96 (talk) 14:31, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Well, I'd like to reduce the amount of numbers in the hook. How about:
ALT2: ... that after an interval of sixteen races in seven months, Hendrick Motorsports won their 200th NASCAR Cup Series with Jimmie Johnson at the wheel? Yoninah (talk) 20:39, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah: I am satisfied with the new hook. MWright96 (talk) 06:40, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. Since I added some more details, we need another editor to review and approve ALT2. Pinging original reviewer @Miller17CU94:. Yoninah (talk) 15:22, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
: Aprroving ALT2. QPQ done, Improved to GA, no copyvio issues (only shows for quotes), natural, and hook is cited in the article. Good to go. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSA^talk 11:41, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
