Needs more independent references before this can move ahead. Some layout headings wouldn't hurt either. Fuebaey (talk) 23:02, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

@Fryede: Are you still working on this nomination? The text could do with more inline cites. Fuebaey (talk) 15:45, 2 December 2014 (UTC)

Nominator has not responded in three weeks, and indeed has not edited on Wikipedia in that time, and only made four edits in all of November. While the nomination was made soon enough after creation, and is long enough at 1905 prose characters, only two of the paragraphs have inline source citations, and one of them is entirely dependent on LearnedLeague's own website. A single independent source is not adequate to establish notability. Given the inadequate referencing in the article, this clearly does not qualify for DYK, and the nomination is being marked for closure. If the article is 5x expanded in the future, or is listed as a Good Article, a new DYK nomination can be made. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:34, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
