| QPQ: None required. |
Overall: 
Article is new enough (nominated one day after five-fold expansion), long enough (~2500 characters), and well-sourced. I tidied up the references to make the citations more thorough and standardized the dates. The first proposed hook is much more interesting than ALT1, but the only source included for the claim it makes is an interview with the center's executive director, hardly an independent source. Can the expander/nominator (or someone else) provide a more independent verification of the claim about the Ryan White CARE Act? Bryanrutherford0 (talk) 17:47, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- There have been some substantial edits to the article since it was nominated, but it now seems to have reached a stable version(?). The new content also meets the DYK standard. The only remaining issue is the hook: without a more independent source to back up the claim, I can't approve the original proposal, and ALT1 is supported but pretty bland. Here is a spicier alternate with a clear citation:
- ALT2: ... that the Westboro Baptist Church called Houston's Montrose Center "an oozing, purulent sore of sodomite contagion?" Source: OutSmart
- Can someone else please review this hook or propose another?

- I know that I probably don't get a say since I was the main editor for this article, but I really love the new hook you proposed, and I believe it is backed up with adequate sources. Kmwebber (talk) 20:21, 16 November 2016 (UTC)Kmwebber
ALT2 is verified and cited inline. Not sure if link should be to Sodom or Sodomy, or if it needs to be linked at all. Rest of review per Bryanrutherford0. ALT2 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 02:07, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
- Oh, sorry! It should go to "Sodomy"; I've fixed the dab-link in the hook above now.-Bryanrutherford0 (talk) 03:10, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
- Does this mean that this will be queued for a DYK on the main page now? Or is there anything else that needs to be done? I have not done this process before, but I am excited. Kmwebber (talk) 22:49, 8 December 2016 (UTC)Kmwebber @Bryanrutherford0: @Yoninah:
