  • Only 1291 characters of readable prose per DYK Checker. —/Mendaliv//Δ's/ 04:42, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
  • Also, I have a few close paraphrasing concerns. And while the hook is cited in article, and the source mentions the media coverage of the hook fact, it would be nice to see a few of the articles that covered it at the time. G S Palmer (talkcontribs) 15:50, 22 July 2014 (UTC)
Yes, sorry, i have just been too busy to give it the time it needs and deserves.Fotoriety (talk) 10:15, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
Yeh, close it then.Fotoriety (talk) 23:39, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
  • I have expanded the article so that it meets the length criteria, further I have copyedited the article to address the close paraphrasing issues and if the reviewer permits I will add my name for the credit and do a required QPQ. Thanks.--Skr15081997 (talk) 10:50, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
  • New enough, long enough, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook ref verified and cited inline. I added Israel Defense Forces to the hook and a link to Golani Brigade. I also added Skr15081997 to the credits. Please submit a QPQ and this will be good to go. Yoninah (talk) 23:58, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
  • Thank you. QPQ done. "Israeli Defense Forces'" was a bit unwieldy, so I shortened it to "Israeli military's". Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 10:25, 3 September 2014 (UTC)
