  • Comment only (not a review): cumbersome hook, the part "filled various roles" is pointless and superfluous to the more-than-notable statement preceding it. Just simplify the hook:
ALT1: ... that Sadie O. Horton (pictured) was the first recorded female United States Merchant Marine veteran of World War II?

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Hook is interesting and meets criteria. Article is new enough and long enough. Picture is free use and used within article. Detected no plagiarism, but when spot-checking citations I was unable to verify the statement "They had 5 children" from this source which only mentions there were seven family members without specifying if these were children, or aunts, uncles, etc. Only three children are named within the source. I also struck the original hook based on above comments.

Approving. I did consider that the word "recognised" might be better than recorded, but as at least one source uses the word recorded I am happy to approve as is. CSJJ104 (talk) 19:44, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SL93 and CSJJ104: Two things: the hook seems to rely on the evidence of Horton's son (the Daily Advance source notes "That's according to her son, Don Horton"), and the last sentence needs a better source than a blogspot image, which could potentially have been manipulated. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 15:10, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
AirshipJungleman29 There are two other sources directly after that one that verify the fact. Sources 3 ("One such brave and seafaring woman was Sadie Horton, who was not recognized as a veteran until 2017 when her family received her official military DD 214 certificate of discharge as a veteran of the U.S. Merchant Marine.") and 8 (" Prior to this passing, mariners who remained along the coast faced difficulty in earning veteran status, thereby affecting benefits that they could later receive. For one woman in particular, it was the lobbying of her son who fought to finally receive paperwork of his mother's Honorable Discharge. ") SL93 (talk) 15:29, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also here - "Despite serving her country during World War II, Sadie Horton was not recognized as a veteran until February 2017, and even that was due to the extensive efforts of her son, Don." SL93 (talk) 15:43, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article is long enough, new enough, and neutral with reliable sources. There are no copyright violations. There are a few issues. The part with "now-famous memo" has an external link, and external links should not be in the article's body. The last part of the Cancellation section needs to be referenced. As for the hook, the article actually says, "it would have been the premier supercomputer of the era". Conway likely was referring to the world, but the quoted words do no say that.

  • Article is new enough, more than long enough, and very well sourced. Hook is interesting and well-sourced, with a minor problem: while the source is Taiwanese, the article does not actually state that the worship actually takes place in Taiwan. Maybe just drop "in Taiwan", especially since the article mentions other countries like Malaysia as well? ALT1 is a bit dull, ALT2 is otherwise OK but "is said to have" is a bit weak.

@Crisco 1492: Thank you for the review. I have copyedited ALT1 per your suggestion as that is a good idea/better grammar. I respectfully disagree with relation to the length, though. I just added up the characters of the quotes and count only around 517 characters out of an article the DYKcheck tool says is over 2600 characters in length. Given that the DYK criterion for length is only 1500 characters, taking all of the quotes away would still leave us with around 2000-2100 characters in length, more than enough to qualify. The production section has no quotes, the premise has 2 but ultimately equating to a sentence, release has no quotes, and it is almost impossible to have a "critical reception" section without any quotes since that section is about what critics have written; take for example Shake It Off#Critical reception or Hackney Diamonds#Critical reception etc. --TheSandDoctor Talk 18:23, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • The critical reception section is fine. However, the third paragraph of #Premise is 60% quotations. The lengthy quotation in the lede could also be paraphrased to better present the premise; that would help improve neutrality as well. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 19:03, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Approved: Article is new enough, long enough, well-cited, presentable, and with no policy issues detected. QPQ waived. Hook is formatted and of good length. Hook fact cited in article (will assume that when he "led" a Sacred Harp sing ["directed" in source] this is equivalent to "conducting"). This is roughly verifiable from the summary preview of the subscription-required online source. Hook is interesting. Could probably do an alternate about the nominative determinism, but for non-April Fools, I don't think it'd be any more interesting than ALT0 which is excellent. I put up ALT0a just so the promoter can see them side-by-side, I think the slight repetition of phrasing in ALT0 (while less concise) makes for a better hook.

  • Comment I'm an IP user so I think I can't approve the overall DYK, but just a heads up that I'm a Korean speaker and I verified that both hook 1 and ALT1 are supported by the sources given. I'll give a slight comment that I'd prefer ALT1 be worded as "... that Ryu Sung-hyun (pictured) will become the first Korea National Sport University student athlete to compete at two Olympic Games?" Think the meaning of this is slightly clearer and it's slightly more concise. I prefer the main hook to ALT1 though; think it's more interesting. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 07:35, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for your input. I have changed the wording on ALT1. I was trying to figure out how to emphasize that he is competing in two Olympics while enrolled in the school- there are multiple alumni who have competed in multiple Olympics. -Riley1012 (talk) 12:50, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment: hooks that treat the future as definite are problematic. I'm assuming Ryu Sung-hyun has qualified for the Olympics, but even athletes on their country's Olympic teams sometimes don't end up competing due to injury, illness, accident, or some other complication, so "will" is a problem (see WP:CRYSTAL). Perhaps "is set to become" could be used (though, like the IP user, I prefer the original hook):
    Note that if you want the Olympics in the original hook, you can do so simply by adding "Olympian" before his name. —BlueMoonset (talk) 04:33, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ALT2 stretches it a little since the building is not named after a current owner, but the others are good. The pictures are nice-looking, free photos taken by the nominator, good job there. QPQ is done. I see two minor problems that need to be addressed. The Milwaukee County Park System involvement is mentioned in the lead but not in the article body, and is unsourced. The infobox says the park was established in 1997, but this is also unsourced and not mentioned anywhere else (and it overwrites the "opened" parameter - what is the difference here?).

  • Article is well sourced and neutral. It's new enough and long enough. QPQ looks to be underway at Template:Did you know nominations/American Colossus: Big Bill Tilden and the Creation of Modern Tennis. I agree that the hooks could be more interesting, and I think it's because it glosses over why this person is notable. (Both in the hook and in the article body.) Following the links the article about the man himself, there's probably a way to describe at least one aspect of what earned him coverage in reliable sources. Either his fiction, his personal life, or both. Shooterwalker (talk) 15:57, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Shooterwalker, Sorry, my watchlist is not usable (too big), so I can see only pings. Do you have any suggestions for a more interesting hook? I am open to ideas, but as I said, I can't think of anything better, and I think the proposed hooks are "good enough" for DYK rules. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:51, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's ok, Piotrus. I think it's hard to come up with this because the article doesn't really summarize the contents of the book. The article summarizes several reviews of the book, but we don't have the context of what they're reviewing.
Not to create too much more work, but would it be possible to get a short summary of the book in the contents section? It could be similar to the main Jerzy Kosinski article, plus even one sentence about the viewpoint/thesis of the author. If that's too much of a pain, plan B would be to scrape something from the review section. I can do my best to come up with something, but it would definitely be easier with more about the contents of the book. Shooterwalker (talk) 00:28, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Shooterwalker, The problem is that the reviews do not, as far as I recall, provide any comprehensive information on the book's contents, which I assume is a biography of Kosinski, and the reviewers assume everyone will figure that out, I guess. They do not talk about chapter structure or such, just occasionally engage with some parts of his biography presented in the book the reviewer found interesting. And there is the issue of trying to make this article (and hook) be about the book and not about Kosinski's biography, which after all is a different article... --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:40, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's okay. We can work without it. I think the hook would end up overlapping with aspects of the subject of the book, but let me see what I can come up with. Shooterwalker (talk) 15:01, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Piotrus How about this:
  • ALT1a: ... that Jerzy Kosinski: A Biography described its subject as a "liar", and yet, one reviewer felt that the author's "studiously neutral position ends up sounding like an apologia for Kosinski".
It leaves out a lot, but hopefully refines the original idea to invite more curiosity. Shooterwalker (talk) 15:15, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Shooterwalker, Sure, it's likely more interesting that what I came up with. I've no problem "adopting" it so you can approve it :) --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:04, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That sounds good to me. I approve ALT1a. (I also don't mind if another editor wants to come by with further revisions.) Shooterwalker (talk) 02:08, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Article is neutral, free from copyvio, suitably referenced, and meets the length and newness criteria—moved to mainspace on 21 May, the same day as this nomination. The hooks are succinct, neutral, interesting, and reliably sourced (though I would recommend adding timestamps to the video refs). My pick would be ALT2, then ALT0; I find ALT1 interesting personally, but I'm not sure general audiences would as well. QPQ is done (albeit a bit brief). This is good to go! – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 23:44, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Timestamp for ALT2 is from 6:08 to 6:28; it's a quote from Russell. TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:25, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
