On subject's notability

[edit]

Per @Cabrils's suggestion, here are the WP:THREE best (in my view) sources that support general and people-specific criteria of notability:

1. The Associated Press, November 21, 2023 (archive)

2. The Washington Post, November 23, 2023 (archive)

3. The New York Times, November 23, 2023 (archive)

Created by Yamfri (talk). Self-nominated at 00:34, 6 December 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Geoffrey Holt (philanthropist); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

@Yamfri: I think a link to the town of Hinsdale, New Hampshire in the hook would be appropriate. What do you think? Thriley (talk) 20:28, 6 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
ALT1: ... that Geoffrey Holt, an unassuming New Hampshire man who worked as a groundskeeper in a mobile home park where he resided, left $3.8 million to his small town after his death? Thriley (talk) 20:34, 6 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Thriley: sure, why not. Thanks for the suggestion. Yamfri /ˈjæm.friː/ (talk) 22:20, 6 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
