- ... that the historic lands and fishing grounds of the Skinpah were buried underwater by the construction of The Dalles Dam? Source: https://www.jstor.org/stable/20615801 , pg 622

5x expanded by Generalissima (talk). Self-nominated at 19:34, 18 September 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Skinpah; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- I shall review this. Schwede66 05:16, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
- Please note that punctuation goes before referencing; please fix the two instances where punctuation follows the reference. Expansion started on 18 September (i.e. on time) and it is currently just over six-times expanded. The article is sufficiently referenced and neutral. Please note that the hook fact must be referenced at the end of the sentence where it is referenced; not just at the end of the paragraph. The JSTOR source is offline but the preview of the first page confirms the hook fact. DYK's referencing requirements are currently not met. This appears to be the user's first DYK, hence a QPQ is not required. The hook is interesting enough. Earwig is clear. Almost ready! Should The Dalles Dam link to the target article? (trick question; the answer is yes but it currently does not) Schwede66 05:37, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
- Schwede66 Corrected referencing requirements & punctuation placement as suggested! Generalissima (talk) 07:20, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
- Good to go. I should also say that the image comes with a suitable license, although it’s not great at the main page size; there will be better options for a lead hook. Schwede66 17:14, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
