  • , new enough, long enough, referenced, QPQ done, no copyvio issues, interesting hook in article and followed by offline source. I prefer the proposed hook. Thank you. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:04, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
  • @Iainmacintyre: @Whispyhistory: apologies for reopening this, but there is an unreferenced "Death" section in the article. Please could we get a source for that? Cheers  — Amakuru (talk) 12:30, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
  • @Amakuru: @Whispyhistory: Thanks for pointing that out. I've added 2 citations one of which confirms that date and place of death and the other the date. Is it OK to remove citation needed tag? Papamac (talk) 13:34, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
    Great, thanks for the speedy turnaround. I've removed the tag myself. @Whispyhistory: if you're happy to sign this one off, I can push it straight back to the queue. Thanks  — Amakuru (talk) 13:54, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Hello @Amakuru: @Whispyhistory: Can you help? This DYK nomination seems to have disappeared. It is not in the approved list for 27 June and no longer in the nominations list for 27 June. I have now had a message from DYKHousekeepingBot stating that the nomination is incomplete and should be posted in nominations which of course I can't do for 27 June. Any advice appreciated.

    I'm not sure what happened, but I'm repromoting it now, following the above resolution of the issues and Whispy's marking as ready. Thanks  — Amakuru (talk) 09:52, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
