- ... that a decade after passing on the opportunity to build a radio station, the owner of the Okmulgee Daily Times newspaper instead bought KOKL?

Overall: 
The article is long enough and was expanded more than five-fold (318 chars to >3000 chars), and was newly expanded when nominated. The article treats the topic in a suitably neutral manner, not e.g. overblowing its importance. The QPQ looks good. There are a few issues with the sources: first, the source "KOKL Facility Record" leads to an empty search result on the FCC website; I fiddled with the search parameters but couldn't get a hit. Also, the source "FCC History Cards" seems to me to say that the station initially broadcast with 100 watts, not the 250 that the article claims. I don't see any other policy problems, or any sing of plagiarism from online sources. The hook is short enough and supported by sources; it's not extremely interesting, but I don't see anything in the article obviously more colorful (I have a hard time writing catchy hooks for my DYKs, too!). Once the source issues are addressed, this should be ready to go. Bryan Rutherford (talk) 18:06, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Bryanrutherford0: Wow, whoever left that source there put in the FM Query link instead of the AM Query... Thanks for catching the error on the wattage, too. It should be OK now. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 18:32, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
- Great, that seems to have addressed my couple of concerns. This looks ready to run at DYK! Good work! -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 03:04, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
