Created by Llewee (talk). Self-nominated at 11:05, 16 October 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/John Ernest Adamson; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
- @Llewee:
Long enough, new enough. No maintenance templates found, no neutrality problems found. All refs offline or paywalled, happy to AGF. However, the hook needs a citation at the end of the sentence (and really, those paragraphs are far too long anyway). In addition, "(See:1923 Birthday Honours and 1924 Birthday Honours)" looks a bit like you're citing Wikipedia, which isn't allowed.--Launchballer 12:39, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
