Matthew Sands, Richard Feynman
- ( Back to T:TDYK )
- ( Article history links: Matthew Sands
- Richard Feynman )
... that Matthew Sands and Robert B. Leighton co-authored Richard Feynman's work The Feynman Lectures on Physics (pictured)?
Improved to Good Article status by Hawkeye7 (talk). Self-nominated at 01:12, 11 August 2016 (UTC).
Lua error: expandTemplate: template "y" does not exist.
- I tried trimming the original hook to make it work but here's a different one which seems better. It resolves the picture and citation issues but someone else will have to decide if it's more interesting. Andrew D. (talk) 17:31, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
- ALT1 ... that Matthew Sands (pictured) persuaded Richard Feynman to accept the Nobel prize?
- ALT2: ... that Richard Feynman's work The Feynman Lectures on Physics (pictured) was co-authored by Matthew Sands and Robert B. Leighton?
New review required
- Feynman did appear as TFA in 2004, but the rules only say that Articles that have featured (bold link) previously on DYK, or in a blurb on the main page's In the news, or On this day sections are ineligible. And Feynman has not appeared in DYK or OTD.
- The image does not have to be in all the articles in a multi-article hook, just one; but since the rules say in the first one, I have created an ALT2 hook re-worded so Feynman comes first
- The hook is sourced to Sands in his article, but to Gleick in Feynman's
- I suppose that those rules were written when DYKs had to be new or expanded and so it was quite unlikely that an FA would qualify. The intent seems to be that if an article has been given a spot on the main page, it shouldn't get a rerun in DYK. I shall start discussion of this point at WT:DYK. Andrew D. (talk) 08:23, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
Per WP:DYK Template:Tq Both the linked articles are GA eligible. The policy was re-reviewed in 2014, a year after GA became eligible for inclusion into DYK, and it was not changed. It says what it says, and both these articles are eligible. — Maile (talk) 22:10, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
