- Hola, admins and DYK staff, not so fast. Don't promote this until it has been properly proofread, and the prose made more acceptable (two different things). That goes for the hook as well, which is a bit of a clunker. Drmies (talk) 00:58, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
- I've made some changes to the prose a litte bit, I think it reads a bit better now. As for the hook --SKATER Is Back 13:39, 22 May 2012 (UTC):
- Alt1... that Mike Daniels, now a rookie for the Green Bay Packers, was first noticed by the team when they were scouting other Iowa linemen?
- Thanks. But see my recent edits--I think you need to go over this with a very fine comb again. I noticed just now that there's a minor error in the very first sentence: see if you can find it. (Oh, note the comma I added to the hook.) And as you can see there were some issues with the citation from The Gazette (incorrect title, publisher, and the "news" template is more appropriate) and an ESPN citation (redundancy)--you should probably check all the citation templates. Sorry, but them's the shakes. See what you can do: my goal really isn't just to get you a nice DYK template on your talk page, but also to help you produce cleaner articles. After all, the DYK section on the front page, that's the window for our store. Good luck, Drmies (talk) 14:04, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
