The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Overall: Article new enough, long enough and is well-sourced and neutral. Earwig did not pick up anything major. The hook is interesting and I added a cite in the article. However, it seems like a bit of an easter egg as I would expect the link to go to an article about Steven Crawford himself, not his death. Pamzeis (talk) I am not watching this page so if you want my attention, please ping me. 05:01, 29 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
Sorry for the delay, I just came back to check on this (ping me in the future, BTW, because I don't watchlist DYKNs I've reviewed). Anyways, I'm fine with either ALT0a or AT0b (see below). Nice work! Pamzeis (talk) 11:23, 30 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
ALT0b: ... that when Steven Crawford died, his body was found in 1963 but he was not identified until 2020?
