- Overall, everything looks good so far, apart from the two minor issues (the first is more of a matter of convenience, the other needs to be fixed before this can be approved). epicgenius (talk) 16:09, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
- There's no requirement that the fact can't be in a caption; the rules only state that must be in the article, not specifically in the body. Also, linking to an HTML landing page is preferred over linking to a PDF since it's easier to get metadata from the former. John P. Sadowski (NIOSH) (talk) 17:09, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
- Yeah, you're right about the second point. But for the first one, maybe you can include a link to the PDF anyway (as well as to the landing page)? This helps readers navigate to the citation faster, otherwise you run the risk of a {{failed verification}} just slapped onto the article. Otherwise, everything is good to go. epicgenius (talk) 18:10, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
- It would be confusing to have two URLs for the same citation. This is beyond the scope of DYK anyway. John P. Sadowski (NIOSH) (talk) 22:21, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
- I disagree on the point that it would be confusing, but I'm not going to press the issue. That said, everything is good to go for this nom. epicgenius (talk) 23:12, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
