St. Mark's Bookshop[edit]

  • ... that St. Mark's Bookshop is the oldest independent book store in Manhattan still owned by the original owners?

Created by RoySmith (talk). Self nominated at 17:29, 18 May 2014 (UTC).

  • The hook claim is made in the lead and nowhere else. It does not have an inline citation. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:01, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
  • The citation is the first NY Times article (specifically, the last paragraph). I've moved the citation from the end of the paragraph to the end of the correct sentence. -- RoySmith (talk) 12:43, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
  • The article is long enough and new enough. The hook now has an inline citation and I did not detect any policy issues. I do not believe that a QPQ review is needed for this nomination as Roy seems to be a newcomer to DYK. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:13, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
