Joaquín Clausell
[edit]... that Mexican painter Joaquín Clausell was known as "Lawyer Chicken"?
5x expanded by Thelmadatter (talk). Self nominated at 13:13, 2 November 2014 (UTC).
- Comment: this is an orphaned nomination from November 2014 which has been rescued per the discussion at WT:DYK#What to do with the remaining untranscluded nominations?. I have given it a copy edit and confirmed to the best of my ability that there are no copyvios; however, the majority of sources are AGF as off-line. As his notability stems from his art, it seemed to me that the hook should have to do with that rather than an obscure fact about his law practice, so I propose two hooks:
ALT1: ... that the National Council for Culture & Arts of Mexico and the Campeche State Cultural Ministry have sponsored a biennial juried art event to honor Mexican impressionist Joaquín Clausell since 1993?
Paisaje con bosque y río by Joaquín Clausell
- ALT2: ... that the work of Joaquín Clausell stands out among Mexican landscape artists because it is in the impressionist style (example pictured)?
- I wasn't sure if I had to provide a review since there isn't one and it's a save, but I reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/Scottish Diaspora Tapestry. If it is not required, please advise and I will use it for another nomination. Should anything else be needed, please ping me and I will do my best to assist.

Full review needed. (Note: supplied QPQ is required.) BlueMoonset (talk) 06:02, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
At first I thought that this article did not qualify for DYK because it is neither new nor five-times expanded. However I now realise that it does qualify as explained by SusunW above. I think ALT1 is boring but ALT2 is satisfactory and more interesting, and is sufficiently cited inline. The image is in the public domain and the article is neutral. I have no particular view about close paraphrasing because of lack of access to the sources which are mostly in the Spanish language. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:39, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
