  • The hook needs to be less speculative. Try the following:
Is that acceptable?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 22:01, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
  • Replying on behalf of Laura, who has had something come up in real life. That looks appropriate, yes. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:57, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
    • All articles pass for date, length and ref. Most were created by Laura. However, I find some of the DYKCheck details odd:
      1. How can Russell Ford and Mark Knowles (field hockey) be created in 2006 and moved from user space in 2012?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:40, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
      2. Should Kiel Brown and Fergus Kavanagh have a similar histories? Were some userspace edits lost?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:40, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
        1. Ford and Knowles apparently did have articles, but when Laura's user-space pages were moved Lankiveil did a history merge. Hence, the existing stubs show up in the history.
        2. Laura appears to have worked in user space (here and here) and then copy-pasted the new content to existing articles. A history merge would be preferable, but I don't think it's necessary with only one contributor. Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:10, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
        • admittedly not absolutely necessary. However, I'm the last guy who is going to pay attention to that history. If I let it go, I feel I am letting the history get erased for those pages by my choice. Please see if you can get the history merge done.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:15, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
  • All history mergers complete. Hopefully that's it. Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:43, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
