John H. Pratt
- ...
that in a 1974 bench trial, Judge John H. Pratt found G. Gordon Liddy guilty of contempt of Congress?
- Reviewed: Robert Sexé
5x expanded by Neutrality (talk). Self-nominated at 02:45, 25 March 2018 (UTC).
Very nice work on the entry! All looks good. What would you think of making the following adjustment to the hook:
ALT1: ... that in a 1974 bench trial connected to the Watergate scandal, Judge John H. Pratt found G. Gordon Liddy guilty of contempt of Congress?
- I'm just thinking that may help a wider readership understand the significance. It's slightly longer but still well under 200 characters. Beyond that, the entry's new enough, long enough, neutral, clears Earwig's Copyvio, hook is sourced, QPQ done--good to go! Innisfree987 (talk) 16:35, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
- Alt1 works for me—thanks! Neutralitytalk 04:14, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
