Ian McKeever (mountaineer)

Created by Nimrod1686 (talk), 86.40.197.254 (talk). Nominated by Muboshgu (talk) at 01:06, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

  • Symbol confirmed.svg - Length, Date and Ref all check out. I would just suggest sourcing the un-sourced information before it goes on the front page, such as his initial claimed achievements.--Epeefleche (talk) 01:15, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
    (Became aware of this article after seeing the nomination at WP:ITN/C). Only commenting on the hook, I would suggest that since McKeever died only very recently (2 January), it is in poor taste to highlight the manner of his death in this fashion. It would make more sense to highlight his record-breaking achievements (providing that is sourced in the article). To those promoting nominations, please don't promote this unless it has been discussed. Carcharoth (talk) 03:19, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Point taken. You may be right. I saw this at ITN/C too, and waited a few days to be sure the RD nom was going to fail and see if anyone else was going to nominate it for DYK before I did. I remember the nomination seemed to hinge on how unusual it is to die in that fashion, so if we keep with this hook, it might be best to add something that highlights that. If not, we can use some of his records for a hook. I'm neutral on that since I have no vested interest in the article itself, but figured it should be posted to DYK if not ITN. – Muboshgu (talk) 04:27, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svg DYKcheck sees no record of it at ITN, and I doubt it would post after a week, so it looks like DYK is to be the venue. Any ALT hook proposals? The "would have worked in public relations" phrase in the article is incorrect, if one reads the cited source, and should be fixed. In addition, the four uncited entries in the List of achievements need to be cited, as does the third entry in the Publications section, given the claim made there. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:00, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
  • If the authors don't cite the list of achievements, I will. I'll add myself as an author, in that case, and provide a QPQ. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:02, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Symbol possible vote.svg No action in over a week, with the exception of correction the PR error. Still needs the new ALT hook proposals and the cites mentioned above. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:59, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Yes, I was just thinking about this article yesterday. I will do it this weekend. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:53, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Symbol redirect vote4.png Okay, all achievements sourced. They make good alt hooks. I put myself on as {{DYKmake}} and will provide a QPQ real soon. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:12, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

And now I have produced a QPQ. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:45, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

  • Symbol confirmed.svg I'm happy to sign this off now. All of the ALT hooks look good and are sourced; I prefer them to the original, as they're a lot more positive. I suggest going for either ALT2 or ALT3. Prioryman (talk) 19:46, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
I'll vote for Alt 2.--Epeefleche (talk) 21:24, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
