  • New enough; long enough; neutral; sourced; appears free of copyvio; hook format okay; hook source checks out; QPQ done; no image. Rosekelleher (talk) 22:28, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
  • These hooks are not hooky at all. It would be far more interesting to say something about what she did, like:
  • ALT2: ... that Joy Ufema's fellow nurses felt she had been given too much autonomy when she started granting last wishes to dying patients? Yoninah (talk) 22:12, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
  • Thank you. New reviewer needed for ALT2. I'm just wondering if the word should be "license" or "leeway" rather than "freedom" (the author is trying to paraphrase "latitude"). Yoninah (talk) 09:20, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
  • Yes, that's very good. I tweaked ALT2. Yoninah (talk) 12:06, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
  • ALT2 is much more "hooky", at 129 characters is well within length requirement, and is an acceptable paraphrase of the sentence found in the cited source, "Nurses complained that she was allowed too much latitude" in granting the wishes of dying patients. I agree with the assessment of Rosekelleher that the article meets other DYK requirements, too. GTG. Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 18:54, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
  • Comment More recent references show Ufema has apparently begun using her maiden name again, as in "Joy (Ufema) Counsel". That's how she is identified in the external link to the video, and in this piece. Should the article be updated and moved to reflect the name she is now using? Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 23:13, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
  • @Grand'mere Eugene: the page name should be the WP:COMMONNAME which most articles call her. Since she rose to fame and wrote books as Joy Ufema, I think we should stick with this name and just mention in the article that she divorced in whatever year and went back to using her maiden name.
