- ALT1:... that the Chargers attacked San Diego City Council member Chris Cate for his opposition to a ballot measure to publicly fund a new stadium?

[2]

- Comment: Greetings! So Chris Cate was a stub article created by User:Mcd51 in May 2016, it stayed a stub drawing largely on primary sources until this month; it had 459 characters of prose as of the last edit that was not done by me back in August 2016. I began working on it yesterday, and as of this DYKN expanded it up to 2,834 characters of prose (exceeding the x5 requirement of 2295). All newly added content is sourced to non-primary reliable sources, and the orignal content sourced to primary sources (from the City of San Diego) remain within the prose. I have attempted to write the article neutrally, including both positive and negative press the subject has received. Running the CopyVio tool, it gave my work a 6.5% which is "Violation Unlikely". There are no dispute templates in use on the article at the time of this DYKN submission, and to the best of my knowledge article doesn't have any WP:BLP issues. Image with the DYKN is in the public domain, and the face appears to be clear at the resolution of 160 × 240 pixels. The first hook is more neutral than the second; feel free to suggest other hooks. Completed review for QPQ requirement here.

- Hook checks out – I like the original hook the most. There are no copyright violations (less than 7% match), the article is new and long enough, and standards seem to be neutral for a BLP. Would it be OK to replace "many decades" with "in almost 50 years" (while making sure to reflect that in the article too)? I think adding that it's been almost 50 years creates a bigger impact. Also, I think I might have found Cate's DOB is the California Birth Index. It is the only Chris/Christoper/ Cate born in the San Diego County. I tried to confirm his mother's maiden name but was not able to. Feel free to add the source if you think it is useful. ComputerJA (☎ • ✎) 13:24, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
@ User:RightCowLeftCoast - Few tags needed to be taken care of before moving forward. ComputerJA (☎ • ✎) 13:45, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- @ComputerJA: I fixed the tags, but I didn't want to use "almost 50 years" as it was used in multiple sources and didn't want to plagiarizer. Also public records are not usable in biography articles per WP:BLPPRIMARY.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 01:49, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
