- ...
that waste management company TerraCycle recycles cigarette butt filters into pellets that are then used in the production of plastic items such as shipping pallets, benches, and ashtrays?
:* ALT2:... that the original reason why TerraCycle packages its liquid fertilizer in used plastic bottles was because the company could not afford new ones?
- ALT3:... that waste management company TerraCycle recycles cigarette butt filters into benches?
ALT4:... that TerraCycleTemplate:`s first product was liquid fertilizer packaged in used soda bottles?
- Comment: A request to hold for use on April 22 (Earth Day).
5x expanded by Bananasoldier (talk). Self nominated at 14:58, 11 April 2014 (UTC).
- The following has been checked in this review by Maile
- 5X expansion, date is within policy
- No QPQ required, editor only has one other DYK
- Extensively sourced in every paragraph
- All four NPOV hooks are mentioned in the article and sourced. ALTS 3 and 4 are shortened versions of the original hook and ALT1.
- Duplication detector run, no issues
- No dabs to take care of
- No dead external links
This appears to be a straight forward article about the recycling company and its history. Well written and a good choice for Earth Day. This is good 2 go. Promoter's choice of hook. — Maile (talk) 15:25, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
- ALT5:... that TerraCycle collects waste materials such as empty juice pouches that are then recycled or upcycled into new products?
- Hi, Template:U. I would actually prefer to use ALT5, which I just thought of now. Could you please confirm whether this hook is good to go? Thanks, Bananasoldier (talk) 23:51, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
Because the wording is slightly different in the article, it should be noted that this is where ALT5 is mentioned in the article: Template:Tq And it has four different sources to go with it. Striking the other hooks. This nomination is good to go with ALT5. — Maile (talk) 00:05, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
