Sam Smith (Washington)

[edit]

Created by DocumentError (talk). Self nominated at 10:55, 21 September 2014 (UTC).

The article is in good shape, but the hook is not cited in the given ref. The hook statement is linked to a page about a park named in his honour, and it doesn't really talk about Smith at all. There is a link off of that page, but I'm not sure it's an RS (still checking it out). I looked in the main bio article from the newspaper, but it doesn't make this statement. Can you re-point the ref to the right cite? Maury Markowitz (talk) 14:31, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
  • I have made minor style and inlink changes to the hook, the content is unchanged. Maury Markowitz (talk) 14:34, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

Got it - I'll withdraw this one then. DocumentError (talk) 14:43, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
