Bill Wurtz

  • Source: [1] One indicative moment was his acceptance of a 2016 Shorty Award for “Best in Weird,” in which he ambled up to the stage in a black suit and tie and delivered a two-word speech: “Thank you!”
  • Reviewed:

  • New GA status verified; no QPQ needed. Article meets DYK's sourcing standards (stricter than GA) and the hook is properly sourced. Earwig is temporarily overloaded so I could not run a copyvio check but spot-checking turned up nothing problematic. I think that not saying what the award is for is part of the charm of the hook; it makes it intriguing and therefore interesting enough. Good to go. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:25, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
