Source: [2] (same source, paywalled but archive should bypass that)- Reviewed: N/A (only my second nomination)

Created by ClydeFranklin (talk). Self-nominated at 05:19, 30 September 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Richard Worley (police officer); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Reviewing... Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:21, 6 October 2023 (UTC)- The article is just long enough, it's new enough, and it's referenced throughout. I don't see any evidence of copyvio.
- It looks like the article has been edited a few times since you last made an edit, introducing a few grammar errors in the prose. I suggest reading it over again to fix those. I removed a large image that had been placed above the infobox.
- The image is acceptable for use on the main page.
- QPQ not required.
- I prefer ALT0, but it's not at all surprising that a police commissioner has a criminal justice degree. I suggest removing that part.
- I advise against ALT1, as it's best to avoid commenting on a BLP's failures on the main page.
The article just needs a quick once over and preferably an edit in the hook to shorten it and keep it interesting. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:39, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
- Modified the hooks as requested. I'll look over the article once I get home. CLYDE TALK TO ME/STUFF DONE 19:46, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
