  • Review New enough. Long enough. No plagiarism concerns. Hook supported by at least four highly reputable sources. Hook could also include "Known as the "Mother of Masters Swimming"" A picture would be a nice addition to the article and the DYK. QPQ Done. 7&6=thirteen () 15:47, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
I actually considered including exactly that point. I decided to keep it short and limited to what I saw as the most interesting point, but your alt is also fine. Could not fine a PD photo. Cbl62 (talk) 16:57, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
The sources amply support all of the alternatives. I only thought this was more "hooky", but I am good with either. I would also note that all three newspapers — the LA Times, the Washington Post, and the NY Times — used "Mother of Masters Swimming" in their own headlines. I leave that decision then to someone who is in a higher pay grade. 7&6=thirteen () 17:05, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
You need to apply a "tick" mark if/when your review is complete. Cbl62 (talk) 17:07, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
