Originally posted above:

• Although saying "alleged" in the article is fine, I would not recommend saying "disgraced mogul Harvey Weinstein". Instead I would briefly explain who Weinstein did and what the women are suing him for. A link to Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse allegations would be nice.
• There is a disparity issue here, and the proposed hook is also not neutral. In the article it states "alleged victims", but this hook says definitively that they were two victims. Also, the hook suggests that these are the only 2 victims, even though we know there were more accusers. Finally, "abuse" is a loaded term without any context (i.e. sexual abuse), so this should be clarified. I would suggest this, which is neutral and emphasizes that these are two of the accusers: epicgenius (talk) 16:58, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

(nominator comment), I took your suggestion and changed my DYK to your ALT1 suggested phrasing. Thank you for your feedback. JC7V-constructive zone 17:22, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

OK. The "disgraced mogul" issue still needs to be fixed, as that's not neutral. After you fix that, the article will be good to go. epicgenius (talk) 17:38, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Fixed, took out 'disgrace mogul' and replaced it with 'former film producer' JC7V-constructive zone 18:01, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

16px Looks good to go now. epicgenius (talk) 18:54, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

• It should be noted that this nomination was probably made erroneously. Template:U did not create this article; Template:U did. Credit where credit is due. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 19:31, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
  • Template:Re This should be fixed now. The original author, Belltower2017, is now listed in the {{DYKmake}} credits. epicgenius (talk) 19:43, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

• 16px Hi, I came by to promote this, but notice that it is an orphan. Could you link it in at least one other Wikipedia article so it won't get an orphan tag? Also, please provide a source for her birthdate. Thank you, Yoninah (talk) 22:14, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I just linked Carrie Goldberg to another Wikipedia article. Thanks for pointing it out. JC7V-constructive zone 22:24, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

• Template:Ping Thank you. And the birthdate? Yoninah (talk) 22:55, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

• Template:Ping Carrie's birthdate or the article's creation date?? Carrie was born (according to the article) in 1977. JC7V-constructive zone 00:13, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

• Template:Ping Carrie's birthdate, you have it as 1977. You also have a middle initial from somewhere. I noticed someone added a Twitter source to the birthdate I put in a different article. Where did you get this information? Yoninah (talk) 00:35, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

I am only the nominator not the author of the article. Her 1977 birthdate is not sourced and I haven't even found that on Twitter. JC7V-constructive zone 00:57, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

• 16px Oh, sorry, I didn't realize that. I removed the unsourced birthdate and middle initial. Restoring tick per epicgenius' review. 11:05, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
