  • @Swpb: New enough and long enough. Double QPQ present (!). The article has substantial references, though the Datasembly ref (#12) is kind of borked and bare—it may be worth evaluating its status. The article is currently at ITN, but oppose !votes exceed support !votes for its nomination; if it were to pass, this DYK would be a moot point. Earwig mostly catches quotes, names of proposed bills, and titles like "House Minority Whip Steve Scalise"; I do think the excerpt dismissed the idea that his administration should have acted sooner is too close to the original CNN article, however. The article meets NPOV. As to the hooks, I share NLH's concerns about ALT1 needing additional context to continue, and I almost worry #2 might be an WP:EGG type of link, though the sources for all three hook facts check out. I also advocate replacing the New York Post ref #55 with a source of higher quality (see WP:NYPOST). Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 20:02, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
@Sammi Brie: Thanks for reviewing! I've revised the close paraphrasing, replaced NY Post as a source, revised ALT1 with context and replaced ALT2. —swpbT • go beyond • bad idea 19:10, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
All hooks work and the textual issues have been fixed. I suspect this will not make ITN given the way things are going (no comments on nomination in two days); Uvalde might have bumped this from consideration. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 20:19, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
