Created by Panamitsu (talk). Self-nominated at 10:15, 23 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Jo-anne Wilkinson; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Comment: Dingle wasn't knighted until 2017, and the leak occurred in 1992–1993, so he was just plain Graeme Dingle at the time of the incident on the Bering Sea. Paora (talk) 09:15, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Paora, I will keep that in mind in future. —Panamitsu (talk) 09:51, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article was nominated within three days of creation, so is new enough. The text is approximately 2100 characters, so is long enough. The article properly uses in-line citations and the copyvio detector finds nothing of note. The hook is cited in-line, short enough, and interesting. It'll certainly get people clicking to find out what happened. There's no image to review and the QPQ has been done. Everything looks good to go! Silver seren^C 00:37, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a more direct way to state the hook? Something like:
