Template talk:Did you know nominations/Ian Knox (admiral)

I rejected this DYK nom because upon a review of the article with earwig bot, where it scored only 31%, and mostly for the long phrases for the various programs and projects, I am of the view that the close paraphrasing concerns may not be able to be adequately addressed because of their structure. However, the concerns about the sequencing of the material raised by the reviewer are legitimate, (i.e. that the material was basically taken from the source with minor revisions) which leads me to the conclusion that it is best that this article not be placed on the main page in its present form. My recommendation is that the article creator bring this up to GA-class and when it passes that review, to re-submit it for DYK and another shot at a main page appearance. The topic is worthy and I think that the polishing required for GAN should address the concerns raised in this review in the process. Best wishes. Montanabw(talk) 17:49, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
