  • comment having watched its development while training the editor it meets all the requirements of DYK, its news, its long enough, it meets policy. Its an interesting hook and well cited image is freely licensed. Given my involvement with training the editor I verify the offline sources as well, but its probably not appropriate for me to give it the final tick. Gnangarra 07:14, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svgThe article is new enough (today!) and long enough. The article is neutrally written and is resplendent with inline citations. No paraphrasing or other copyvio issues detected. The hook is within format, and is of exceptional interest. First DYK for this editor, so no QPQ necessary. No image to check against. Image verified to be in public domain. The issue is the factual accuracy of the hook. The hook itself as presented in the DYK is fine, but there seems to be a discrepancy within the article regarding this fact. The article says it took place in 1954, while the Canberra Times says this took place in 1963. Of far less importance is that the quote is "Shut up, you bastards" but then following sentences says "these two words" made newspaper headlines, and I count four words in that quote. Perhaps you need to be specific about which two words appeared on front pages? This is a really interesting article, thank you! 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 16:19, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
