Willis Tucker

Created by SounderBruce (talk). Self-nominated at 04:12, 26 November 2016 (UTC).

  • Symbol confirmed.svg The hook is interesting as it startled and intrigued me to learn that Snohomish County did not have an Executive until 1980, indicating they did not adopt a charter government until that late date. Fascinating! The hook is also of appropriate length and is cited to a RS (the Seattle Times). There is no image to review against. Both the hook and article are NPOV. The article is new enough (created 20NOV) and long enough. There is no obvious copyvio. QPQ done. All other criteria met. GTG. LavaBaron (talk) 04:15, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
  • Running the golf hook would definitely be more interesting. SounderBruce 22:18, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
Symbol confirmed.svg Primary approved. I don't find ALT1 interesting. The primary hook has a wider impact; the citizens of an entire county. What so-and-so's personal athletic best happens to be isn't that interesting unless it establishes a record. LavaBaron (talk) 22:06, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
