  • Article is new, long enough, well-sourced and neutral. No evidence of copyvio. Hook is cited and interesting. This is your first DYK nomination there is no need for a QPQ. I did a few copyedits, notably the uncapitalization of "Blue Hole" to "blue hole", as well as a few wiki-link changes to get to a more accurate, specific target. Personally, if I had to choose a hook I'd go with ALT1 simply because of its succinctness. HeyitsBen talk 14:31, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Hello HeyitsBen and thank you for the review and compliments. I think you're right about Alt1 being the better hook. For a few months now I've been hoping to find a topic to write an article for DYK and when I saw Green Banana Hole in the news, I thought I might have a good one. Is there anything else I should do now? Greeting to Cape Town from Los Angeles.   // Timothy :: talk  15:13, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
