McConnell Island
- ... that American chemical weapons researcher and oceanographer Thomas Gordon Thompson sold his stamp collection to pay for his private island?
Created by LavaBaron (talk). Self nominated at 06:00, 17 January 2015 (UTC).
- I don't find any of the words stamp, sell, sold, private or island (in the appropriate context) in the article at all. What's going on? EEng (talk) 06:54, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not sure why you're having trouble. The seventh sentence is: Thompson financed the purchase of the island through the sale of his valuable stamp collection and later built a home on it from native stone and driftwood. Maybe you need to refresh your browser? LavaBaron (talk) 06:59, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
- Here's why [1]. Fixed, and a CE for the hook. (I'll leave the review to others.) EEng (talk) 07:10, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
- Um, okay ... LavaBaron (talk) 07:15, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
Creation date is OK. Hook is cited, and its length is ok. References are ok (AGF on the only one offline), and I don`t see any paraphrasing issue. No QPQ required. The only problem is that the article is too short: 1210 characters according to DYK Check. In order to pass, some expansion is needed. Alex2006 (talk) 09:39, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
