Four-horned antelope
[edit]... that the four-horned antelope (pictured) has four horns, unlike the two of most other bovids?
Improved to Good Article status by Sainsf (talk). Self-nominated at 05:56, 27 April 2016 (UTC).
- A new GA, hook is cited to an offline source in the "description" section. I see no problems at all - other than should it be "(illustrated)"? anemoneprojectors 15:41, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review, AnemoneProjectors. I think you are right, though I am not very well acquainted with DYKs... Sainsf <^>Feel at home 03:17, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
- The hook fact may be true, but it is repetitive and not hooky. Yoninah (talk) 00:12, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: I'm not sure how to tweak it, could you please help? Thanks, Sainsf (talk · contribs) 02:53, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- This would make a good hook, although it is not mentioned in the source to which it was cited (I removed the cite):
- ALT1: ... that the unusual four-horned skull of the four-horned antelope (illustrated) makes it a popular target for trophy hunters? Yoninah (talk) 13:37, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
Great. New reviewer needed for ALT1. Yoninah (talk) 13:56, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
- Approving ALT1 as being interesting and cited inline. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:57, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
- @Cwmhiraeth: thank you for the approval on ALT1. However, it does not appear that the original reviewer, @AnemoneProjectors: did a complete review, relying mostly on the GA icon for acceptability to DYK. Would you mind doing a proper review so this can pass? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 12:44, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
- This is a newly-promoted GA, and is long enough and nominated in time. The illustration is in the public domain, the ALT1 hook fact is cited and the article is neutral. I checked a few of the sources to which I had access and found no copyright issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:45, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
