- ... that Guy Fulton designed 34 campus buildings and 16 fraternity/sorority houses at the University of Florida plus the spring-fed pool at Glen Springs?

The article lists the buildings at the UF campus designed by Fulton but does not specifically make a statement that supports the hook. I would have to tot up the buildings listed to know whether the number was correct. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:13, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- And that's a problem because...? Mgrē@sŏn 18:59, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- Its a problem because it is a DYK requirement that the hook fact is mentioned in the article and has an inline citation. Neither of these requirements is met here. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:03, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
- Look above the list: there's an inline citation for the statement that Fulton designed all of them. It would be patently absurd to require a citation after each of them; placing a citation after the lead to a list in order to be a source for the entire list is common and accepted practise here. "Routine calculations do not count as original research", so as we have a source saying that he designed all of them, and as the list has 16 buildings marked as fraternities or sororities and 34 other buildings, we have no problems.

OK. I guess I was being over zealous on this one. Tthe article passes the other DYK criteria of length and newness. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:10, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
