New enough, long enough. An excellent article in terms of policy compliance: well-cited, informative, and presenting a range of views on a controversial topic in an evenhanded manner. Earwig only identifies direct quotes. QPQ complete.
- Hook is short enough, cited, provocative, and neutral in that both admirers and critics of the article topic would be likely to find it apt. I suspect I already know the answer, but for the reasons described at WP:NOTCENSORED and the Main Page, I would be remiss if I didn't ask the author to consider offering an alternative hook without an f-bomb. (Prior consensus seems to be to discourage offensive hooks if alternatives are available; see Wikipedia_talk:Did_you_know/Archive_105#Proposed_rewording_of_rules.)

- My sense is that more recent discussions on this err on the side of WP:NOTCENSORED; see the DYK nomination for "17 Million Fuck Offs" from last month, which did use "fuck" in the hook. Morgan695 (talk) 21:35, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
