No, this is a disgraceful exposure of someone who has fallen on hard times. Why would any of you think this to be appropriate for DYK??? The Rambling Man (talk) 23:00, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

I'm not at home in this part of Wikipedia, and am possibly not entitled to an opinion here, but I must protest too. Are the negative virtues ticked above all a DYK needs? Article not too old, not too short, not copyvio, etc? The article is sad — some BLPs are, because life sometimes is — I'm not complaining about the article — but putting it on DYK? And with that cold-hearted hook? Now imagine it was you, or a friend or relative of yours. Well? Is the hook still "interesting"? Bishonen | talk 23:45, 16 February 2018 (UTC).

    • "Disgraceful exposure"? Have you read this? – Muboshgu (talk) 00:26, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
      • Write something better please. It's clear that the current hook is grim and unworthy, and in your position, you should know better. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:43, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
        • There is absolutely nothing wrong with this hook. No BLP violation, nothing inappropriate at all. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:37, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
