5x expanded by Bigturtle (talk) and 7&6=thirteen (talk). Nominated by 7&6=thirteen (☎) at 11:29, 23 October 2017 (UTC).
- New -- work to expand the article was performed in the last 7 days
- Long enough -- expanded to more than 26K
- Meets policy -- yes
- Hook -- I prefer the ALT1 tag. The term "ghost ship" more commonly refers to a derelict ship found adrift, & the Clifton was a wreck at the bottom of the Great Lakes for over 80 years. (My first read of the hook led me to think it was a derelict drifting in the Great Lakes undetected for almost 100 years -- which if true would make a cool article.) I am a bit hesitant about the "almost 100 years" part; unless a third party steps in & says s/he is cool with the statement, I'd suggest replacing that with "over 80 years" -- which is still remarkable.
- Content -- no copyright violations detected; sourcing IMHO are satisfactory; links I checked to newspapers.com viewable without username/password.
- QPQ -- User:7&6=thirteen reviewed the article claimed.
- Image licensing status -- image taken from Wikimedia Commons, where it is stated to be PD.
After discussion of suggested tweaks to hook, this nomination will meet all criteria. -- llywrch (talk) 21:31, 24 October 2017 (UTC)
- ALT2:... that the whaleback SS Clifton (pictured) disappeared for over 90 years?
And you're right, it was over 90 years, not 80. (My ability to do math in my head has worsened lately.) -- llywrch (talk) 22:31, 24 October 2017 (UTC)- Comment Longer than the RMS Titanic, 1912 -1985. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 22:54, 24 October 2017 (UTC)
