- Comment: Since this is my second DYK nom, I believe I'm exempted from QPQ.

- Article was nominated within 7 days of article being published onto mainspace. Prose has at least 1,500 characters. Wording is neutral. I did not find any close paraphrasing issues. This is the nominator's 2nd nomination so a QPQ is not needed at this time. There are no copyright problems with the image provided. All hooks are the same but with different wording. If I were to choose, the main ALT is the best in my opinion. Inline citations are accurately provided but in the Nike Moon Shoes section, they are only cited after each paragraph so some citations are a bit unclear in that regards and should be fixed. lullabying (talk) 03:59, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Lullabying. Thank you for reviewing this. I'm a little confused what you mean about the Nike Moon Shoes section. All the text in the Nike Moon Shoes section (well, technically only the first three paragraphs) are supported by the inline citations at the end of the paragraph. Inline citations are not required for every sentence, and it's quite common to place them at the ends of paragraphs. Did you find text that was not verified from the inline citations?

- lullabying I moved the refs in the Moon Shoes section so they're now closer to the text. Is it more clear now? Dr. Swag Lord (talk) 03:43, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for addressing the issues. It looks good to go. One thing I would note is that it's better to remove the link to Geller's YouTube channel per WP:LINKSTOAVOID 10 and consider including Template:Infobox YouTube personality in its place instead. lullabying (talk) 09:34, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
