• New, long enough, neutral. Hook is interesting and reliably sourced. Good to go. Citobun (talk) 14:56, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

• I have pulled this from p6 because of WP:PARAPHRASE issues with at least one of its sources. Gatoclass (talk) 13:22, 9 October 2016 (UTC)
  • @Dan arndt: Additionally, the QPQ review used does not mention wheter every parargaph of the article has a citation, which is required by DYK rules. Pppery 13:38, 9 October 2016 (UTC)
    • Pppery Whilst I didn't specifically state it in the QPQ review the article in question had several citations for each paragraph. Dan arndt (talk) 15:07, 9 October 2016 (UTC)
• With regard to PARAPHRASE, the following sentence in particular is very close to the source" Over the years, very few changes were made to the façade of the Grand Theatre, with the brickwork being painted over, a new neon sign added down the length of the façade, and the original ornate metal verandah replaced with a more modern style. There are also a number of phrases taken directly from other sources which I think could be reworked, such as "in aid of wounded soldiers", "bailiffs were called in", "taken over by ... bought out the other members".
