• Muboshgu, I got all the haste you want--but can't you combine these two hooks? Drmies (talk) 23:47, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

• Much appreciated. I can try. (BTW "why dates for titles", the answer is because that's what Reflinks picks up as titles and I haven't fixed them manually yet). – Muboshgu (talk) 23:54, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

• • ALT2 ... that Judge Jeremiah T. Mahoney qualified for the 1906 and 1908 Summer Olympics, but did not attend either, and pushed the United States to boycott the 1936 Summer Olympics in protest of Nazi Germany?
  • ALT3 ... that Judge Jeremiah T. Mahoney, who pushed the United States to boycott the 1936 Summer Olympics in protest of Nazi Germany, qualified for the 1906 and 1908 Summer Olympics, but did not attend either?
• I'm going to go ahead and approve this; minor copy edits will be made, no doubt, before we hit the front page. It's new enough and it's long enough. All the facts in the hook are verified--that is, for the qualifications, I guess we'll just have to take Mahoney's word and that of the editor of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle for it. Personally, I like ALT2 better. Now, BlueMoonset, how do we get this into the time slot Muboshgu was hoping for? Drmies (talk) 00:07, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the quick review! All refs will be filled out and more expansion will be done before the torch ceremony. I think any of us can move it into the Special Occasions area on the approved noms page. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:20, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
    • Drmies, since you think it should be moved as an appropriate special occasion hook, I've just moved it. Muboshgu, it's best if nominators don't do the move; Drmies could have moved the nomination transclusion himself down to the Olympics subsection in the special occasion section at the bottom of the Approved page once the nomination was moved to the Approved page by the bot.
