- Neutral, in-line citations. Most are reliable sources; some primary or questionable sources cited for minor details, well within policy and guidelines. Hook has an appropriate citation to a reliable source.
- No close paraphrasing, copyvio or plagiarism problem found (Checked 7 blocks of text with Google, scanned 15 ref's available on-line)
- Hook is accurate, short enough (<158 characters), properly formatted and supported by an in-line citation to a reliable source.
- Article is new enough, from redirect to full article on 3 March 2014, same day as nominated.
- Suggesting alternate hook. That Hehtal is a HS math teacher isn't particularly interesting or hooky. That the atheist activist raised funds to help a church is ironic and hooky. Since I suggested the alternate hook, I can't approve my own hook. Leaving this for another reviewer to close. DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·ʇuoɔ) Join WER 16:00, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
New reviewer needed to finish the review, especially ALT1 hook. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:19, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
This article conforms to the DYK criteria as mentioned above. The ALT1 hook is well-referenced. Good to go. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:55, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
