Improved to Good Article status by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 00:55, 23 July 2020 (UTC).
- Hello, Epicgenius, I have undertaken a review of this article. IMO, ALT2 is the most interesting of the three hooks offered. Your paraphrasing of the archaic language of the 1883 Brooklyn Eagle article is sufficient for verification purposes, with your phrasing carried over properly from the article to the hook. This article has just completed Good Article review, so DYK submission is within the allowable time frame. Length, readable text, copyright issues, and other DYK requirements have been addressed in the recent Good Article review. You are good to go.Gulbenk (talk) 18:46, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
