Debra Marquart
[edit]... that Debra Marquart, a poet from Napoleon, North Dakota, left to tour with rock bands and returned to teach writers' workshops in Bakken oil field communities most affected by hydraulic fracking?

New enough, long enough, well referenced, neutrally written, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook refs verified and cited inline. No QPQ needed for nominator with less than 5 DYK credits. I'm wondering what you think about shortening the hook? The part about being a poet kind of detracts from the impact. I suggest:- ALT1: ... that Debra Marquart left Napoleon, North Dakota, to tour with rock bands and returned to teach writers' workshops in Bakken oil field communities most affected by hydraulic fracking?

- Thank you for reviewing AND suggesting improvements. it never occurred to me that "poet" would distract! seeing your alternative I feel you are completely right; agree with your proposal. what do I need to do next now- strike the original proposal? I havent done this DYK by myself before.--Wuerzele (talk) 13:38, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
