Malcolm (Macbeth)

Created by TonyTheTiger (talk). Self nominated at 07:32, 21 March 2014 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg New enough and long enough. Hook is fine, and whilst I know the hook accurately reflects the events in the play, there is no reference to support it. There are not enough references generally - even some links to the relevant sections of a free online version of the text would help. Edwardx (talk) 00:14, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
  • You have added a free online version of the play as your second External link (by the way, the first links returns a 404 error). Alas, this version does not include line numbers. DYK rule 3b is clear - "The hook fact must be cited in the article with an inline citation to a reliable source". Edwardx (talk) 23:38, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
  • Symbol possible vote.svg Sorry Tony - IMO this article extends the scope of DYK. The article offers only one source apart from the play itself. This is like an article about a film where the only content is sourced plot summary. In this case its not even a complete plot, its just the bits where one character appears. More 3rd party analysis required to supply sources. IMO. thanks Victuallers (talk) 18:54, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
    • Withdrawn'Sorry, guys. I am probably not going to do any more research on this subject.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:18, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
      • I have unwithdrawn this nomination in hopes of getting it onto the main page for April 26, which WP sort of recognizes as William Shakespeare's 450th birthday.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 23:02, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
        • Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Template:U has withdrawn from this nomination.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 07:42, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
          • So does that mean that the nomination is still live, and counted as nominated by you TTT? From what I see the sources also include the notes written by three other sources, so there is more than 1 primary source + 1 other. So I will say sourcing overall is OK.
