Substantial interesting article on plenty of sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I accept the hook, it made me curious. I'm open though to something mentioning that “Liberty’s Flameout." was presented instead. I also think the "because of DT" could be a bit clearer in the article. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:36, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
- User:Gerda Arendt would the hook have made you as curious without "because of DT"?-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 14:53, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- Let's not discuss my stance there, please. Perhaps it's neutral enough to say that I became interested only because of the image. - I said in the article it could be clearer what DT had to do with the unusual break of tradition, not in the hook. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:07, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry, I misread. The hook made you curious and the article needs clarification. Will have a look.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 04:57, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

- The image is licensed and a must ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:38, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
- I have amended the text that is related to the hook. I am glad you feel the way I do about the image. In all my experience on DYK, I don't recall seeing such an image endorsement. It is of superior quality and works with a hook that has high level of intrigue.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:03, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
