  • Comment: I'm not near done with this article (still a work in progress before GA and FA noms), but it's at 5x now. There's a bunch of things from this article that can be mixed and matched for this hook, and I'm open to anything

  • Hook: I like all of them. Cited. Short enough.
Article: New enough, long enough. Well-referenced, but the Google News archives are not well formatted. No close paraphrasing.
Summary: Fix the formatting. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:45, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
  • I hate that Reflinks can't do any better than that for Google News archives results, and I do intend to fully flesh out those references before I take this to GA, but to point out the DYK requirement on references, it just says no bare url's, and these aren't bare. I will start converting them now, and hopefully have them done before this hits the main page, since as I said, I am planning on taking this to GA. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:12, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
  • If you say so. Those look essentially bare to me, but not in the guidelines to refuse on that alone. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:14, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
