:*[[File:Symbol question.svg|16px]] Hi, I came by to promote this and noted one paragraph without any cites, per [[WP:DYKSG#D2|Rule D2]]. I also find the hook uncertain, as there is quite a gap between 8 and 25. Perhaps write "as few as 8 delegates", or "25 delegates according to Dodge".

Earl Dodge
- ... that Earl Dodge held a presidential nominating convention in his home with as few as eight delegates in attendance? "The Worst Year for Prohibition Since 1933?". The Los Angeles Times. September 19, 2004. p. 17. Archived from the original on March 31, 2020 – via Newspapers.com."Prohibition Party – The Oldest Third Party in U.S."
ALT1:... that Earl Dodge sold the Prohibition Party's headquarters and moved it to a tool shed? "The hilarious travails of the Prohibition Party". June 13, 2013. Archived from the original on March 30, 2020.
5x expanded by Jon698 (talk). Self-nominated at 16:22, 2 April 2020 (UTC).
Although this article has previously been as long as 3245 characters, which would mean this doesn't technically count as a 5x expansion, it has been stable at around 1,000 characters for the best part of 10 years, so I'm happy to IAR and accept it as a 5x expansion. The date of expansion, allowing for this, is fine. The hook fact is interesting, but does not appear in the article: the article only states "at his home". Further, the LA Times article suggests that there was disagreement; Hedges claimed there were 7 or 8, Dodge says 25. The Daily Kos is not considered a reliable source, per WP:RS/P.

- Template:Ping Thank you for noticing that mistake and for informing me about the Daily Kos stuff. I just made the changes necessary to the page and the hook. - Jon698 Talk 15:14 4 April 2020
Sorry for the delay coming back to this. All good now for the original (amended) hook. I have made a minor MOS copy edit to the hook. Harrias talk 16:23, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
