This is my first time reviewing a DYK nomination, so the input of another editor wouldn't hurt. The date, length, and hook of the article are all good. WP:AGF on offline references as they seem legitimate. The one area of concern would be the fact that the lead image of the subject in the infobox is fair-use, if no free image of the deceased subject is available this is fine in the grand scheme of things, but for WP:DYKIMG it is not. Perhaps the opinion of a more experienced editor on it would be helpful. Other than that article looks ready. Inter&anthro (talk) 23:48, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for reviewing, Inter&anthro. My understanding of WP:DYKIMG #1 is that the image used in the DYK cannot be fair-use. And the image used is File:USS Baltimore by Fred S. Cozzens.jpg which is PD on both sides of the pond. Correct me, if I am wrong. Courtesy ping (Broichmore—Philafrenzy). Sam Sailor 23:55, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
- Yes you're correct, I apologize on my mistake. Inter&anthro (talk) 01:53, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
Sam Sailor you need to provide a QPQ, as you have more than 5 DYK nomination credits. I will donate one of mine to move this along: Template:Did you know nominations/Daniil Trifonov discography.Yoninah (talk) 19:36, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
Hi again, I came by to promote the first hook, but do not see an inline cite for it. Yoninah (talk) 19:44, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: Nomination was done by Broichmore, but I'll gladly go and review one. As for an inline cite, hang on, I'll have a look at it. Sam Sailor 19:49, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
- @Sam Sailor: Oh, sorry, I saw your name there but now I see that Broichmore was the nominator. I'll remove my QPQ and you don't need to supply one, either. Yoninah (talk) 19:55, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
