Improved to Good Article status by Dirtlawyer1 (talk). Self nominated at 05:42, 27 January 2015 (UTC).

  • The article was promoted to GA before the nomination, and is long enough and appears to be in good shape overall, as I'd expect of a new GA. However, the hook is problematic because the article doesn't mention that Cynthia Woodhead is an American or a former world record-holder. Both of those item are in the Toledo Blade article that's currently sourcing the hook fact, so all you have to do is find a way to add them. I'll do further source checks once this is done.

  • @Giants2008: I have made your suggested changes to the text of the article to better support the hook. Thanks! Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:39, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
  • The changes you made look good, and the article's verifiability looked fine from a few spot-checks. The only possible issue I see is that you haven't done a QPQ review of another article, but if you have fewer than 5 DYKs before this one that requirement would be waved. If that's the case, let me know and I'll add a green tick here; if not, you will need to do a review before this gets approved. Giants2008 (Talk) 19:18, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
  • @Giants2008: I'm pretty sure this would be my 5th DYK credit (assuming it's approved); it's only the second time I've actually submitted one. The other three were for articles on which I worked, but someone else submitted the DYK nomination. GIven that I've two more pending from the same batch of 3 GAs, I probably should do a couple of DYK reviews in any event. Thanks. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 21:44, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Because this would be number five, that means you don't have to do a review for this article, which is good to go now. Do keep in mind that you will have to do reviews for the other 2 DYK submissions in order for them to be approved. Giants2008 (Talk) 20:12, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
