... that on Saint Patrick's Day in 2003, Catholic Worker Clare Grady broke into an Army recruiting center and poured her blood on the walls, windows, and a US flag in a protest of the invasion of Iraq? Source: "On the verge of America's invasion of Iraq, four left-wing activists went into the vestibule of their suburban Army recruiting center and poured vials of their blood, about four ounces each, onto the walls, windows and American flag."

I’ll review. While I do, Thriley, hooks must be 200 characters or fewer. Could you please propose a trimmed version? Innisfree987 (talk) 21:31, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

Innisfree987, I trimmed it down. Does it make it now? Thriley (talk) 21:39, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

I tweaked and now it’s just under. FYI next time you can just Google “character counter” and check to make sure you’re proposing a hook of appropriate length. There’s also a counter in the upper right corner of this frame but it seems to be malfunctioning at the moment. Innisfree987 (talk) 21:46, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

Thank you. I appreciate your help. This is the first DYK I have personally nominated so I am still figuring the process out. Thriley (talk) 21:49, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

Long enough, new enough, neutrally written. No QPQ required and hook is interesting and now within length requirements. However Earwig shows awfully close paraphrasing in the Griffiss section. Could you please revise to address this Thriley? Innisfree987 (talk) 22:31, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

Innisfree987, I corrected the issue. Thank you, Thriley (talk) 00:52, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Thanks very much. All else looks in order to me! Innisfree987 (talk) 02:06, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
