Well-written article. I am One of Many (talk) 23:11, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks, I'm not sure how I managed to omit Eden from the article. Fixed now. Prioryman (talk) 07:57, 4 July 2014 (UTC)
Hook fixed and it is good to go! I am One of Many (talk) 17:22, 4 July 2014 (UTC)
Per DYK rules (to whit: "The hook fact must be cited in the article with an inline citation to a reliable source, since inline citations are used to support specific statements in an article. The hook fact must have an inline citation right after it, since the fact is an extraordinary claim; citing the hook fact at the end of the paragraph is not acceptable. (Note, "extraordinary" is used here to mean "out of the ordinary", not "exceptional to a very marked extent.") Nominations are to be rejected if the claim made in the hook is not present in the source, or if the source is not a reliable source.") this article is not ready.

- I've added a duplicate citation, though I don't see any reason why you couldn't have done so yourself. Prioryman (talk) 03:39, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
With a copy of same reference right after the hook source, it is good to go. I am One of Many (talk) 03:46, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
To prep4 as
- that a long-ago occupant of Brooksby Hall (pictured) was the ancestor of sixteen British Prime Ministers, including Anthony Eden, Winston Churchill and David Cameron?
