  • Symbol confirmed.svg Both articles created within the last seven days. Both articles clear minimum prose requirements. Spot checks from online sourcing turned up no paraphrasing issues, and sources appear to support statements that they purport to. No neutrality concerns. Hook is short enough. Promise of a deadly shipwreck is interesting to a broad audience. Source provided supports hook. QPQ requirement satisfied. Image shows up well at low resolution, and is verifiably in the public domain. This is my first DYK review; please alert me if I have done it wrong. Steve Smith (talk) 05:09, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
