Tim Guthrie[edit]

  • ... that at artist Tim Guthrie's exhibition Rendition, visitors' reactions to his paintings of prisoners being tortured were "digitally downloaded into a database for future examination and analysis"?
  • Comment: Hook fact & ref is at end of "Residencies and Exhibitions" section.

  • Nominated much too late (Created 30 September, nominated 11 October) Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:34, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
I should've mentioned in the nomination; was only moved to mainspace on 6th October, with this edit. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 14:34, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
Demiurge is correct; DYK parsed the history incorrectly. The article history indicates that it was moved from User space to Articles for creation on 30 September, but it didn't move to mainspace until 6 October. --Orlady (talk) 14:56, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
  • Fair enough. I'll do a review in a second.
  • Hook: Short enough, interesting. Cited.
Article: New enough and long enough (sorry about that!). Image in infobox needs source information, and as far as I know we will need Guthrie's permission as well (unless he also owns it) since his painting is such a major part of the picture. Referencing is thorough, but rather bare (should be improved). Paraphrasing seems fine
