The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page.

No further edits should be made to this page.
Comment: somehow, my content skills have returned? please do a notability sweep of the article :) i'm a bit concerned that it gets draftified or deleted.
Overall: New enough (12 Dec) and long enough (RPS 4574), notability looks fine to me. Sourcing is good and Earwig looks good. Neutrality is good, maybe with exception of the last sentence or two of "Against", about canvassing with his mom (might read to some like a "gotcha" sort of line, but sentence after backs it up in a way). Happy to give a tick. (Not as important, but I'd recommend linking "Culver City" in the hook for unfamiliar readers.) PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 20:00, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

It seems likely that this ballot measure will remain at C-class indefinitely, as I've exhausted the available sourcing and this is a one-time event. But, should historical sources choose to revisit this unsuccessful local initiative, a thorough investigation of the details of the campaign could take this to GA status. Population- and area-based demographics on campaigning and results would be particularly helpful. The article provides a good overview, but doesn't address the main aspects of the topic in enough detail to meet my GA nomination standards. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 00:40, 30 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
