Chenies Street
... that London's Chenies Street includes the entrance to the deep-level bomb shelter that was Eisenhower's headquarters during the Second World War?
- Reviewed: Dog Island Lighthouse.
Created by Philafrenzy (talk). Self nominated at 00:54, 30 December 2014 (UTC).
- Hook not sourced - a bit of copy and pasting found from Goodge Street article which also has no source for there being an entrance on Chenies Street.Nominator yet to do a review.
- New – Article created within the past seven days on the 25th Dec.
- Long enough – the prose portion is at least 1,500 characters.
- Within policy – The article is neutral, it contains at least 1 inline citation per paragraph. I cannot find any copyright violations other than the one identified above regarding the shelter.
- Hook - As explained above.
- QPQ – Nominator not done.
- Image - Provided under free use by nominator. It is used in the article and is visible at small size (100 × 100px).
- Philafrenzy - I'm sure you will be able to make the small fixes required. Its a brilliant article overall, good job. Nice work on taking the photo too! ツStacey (talk) 19:45, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. I will take a look. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:12, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry to be a spoilsport, but I'd like to hear why we can accept http://underground-history.co.uk/shelters.php as an RS. It's one of those terrific enthusiasts sites which no doubt is the source of much fascinating info, but I don't see the editorial oversight. Am I missing something? Perhaps the hook can be found in a more conventional source. EEng (talk) 09:12, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- The role of Eisenhower has been exaggerated by some of the sources I think. I added a ref from The Times which confirms the entrances (and reminded me that there is one from within the station itself) and replaces the source queried by EE above.
- Alt1 ... that London's Chenies Street includes an entrance to the deep-level bomb shelter that was a US Army Signal Corps base during the preparations for D-Day? Philafrenzy (talk) 12:04, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- Here's the Tottenham Court Road entrance to the shelter, complete with real Londoners. Note the authentic ethnographic detail including the cards advertising local prostitutes in the phone box. Philafrenzy (talk) 12:22, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- There are no lengths that I won't go to to ensure that Wikipedia is accurate. Philafrenzy (talk) 19:18, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- New hook seems fine and is cited in the article. QPQ not completed? Unless editor hasn't nominated more than 5 DYKs? ツStacey (talk) 21:05, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
- Will do a QPQ shortly. Thanks. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:18, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
