Mayor of Marlborough[edit]
... that Liz Davidson was the first female Mayor of Marlborough for the Marlborough District of New Zealand and served in that role from 1995 to 1998?
Created by Schwede66 (talk). Nominated by Northamerica1000 (talk) at 23:02, 22 February 2013 (UTC).
- I've just moved the article to a new name and wanting to tidy up, I see the article has been nominated at DYK. Cool. Two thoughts:
- It needs a new hook, as Davidson was Mayor of Marlborough, but the article is now just about the mayors of the borough of Blenheim; the rationale for this is explained on the article's talk page, and
- The article isn't quite finished yet (but I'm also not far off from finishing it).
- Thanks for nominating it! Schwede66 07:08, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
- Ok, the article is now finished. I've written two additional articles, and the original hook would work again (it is, however, a new article that makes the hook work, and NOT the article that you nominated). Here's a possible new hook that captures all three articles (for that to work, you'd have to add the two new articles to your nomination):
- ALT1 ... that New Zealander Leo McKendry was both the last Mayor of Blenheim and the first Mayor of Marlborough?
Needs a reviewer for the ALT1 hook and all three articles. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:45, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
All 3 pages are new enough, long enough, well-referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in sources. Hook fact is seen in all 3 pages, and offline hook ref is AGF. However, I just have a question on Mayor of Marlborough: I don't see anything about the murder conviction in footnote 4. Best, Yoninah (talk) 19:48, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
