Lucas van Foreest

[edit]
  • Reviewed: Less than five DYK credits.

Created by Hrodvarsson (talk). Self-nominated at 23:02, 10 October 2018 (UTC).

  • New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. Unable to check for close paraphrasing as most sources are foreign-language. Most of the references are pretty bare URLs; please format them using WP:Citation templates. Image is freely licensed. No QPQ needed for nominator with less than 5 DYK credits.
  • The hook is okay, but I'm wondering if you would mind condensing some of the names for international readers who probably won't recognize them?
  • ALT1: ... that 17-year-old Dutch chess grandmaster Lucas van Foreest has a brother, great-great grandfather, and great-great granduncle who are all Dutch Chess Champions? Yoninah (talk) 17:40, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: Thanks for reviewing. I have filled out the references. The ALT hook is more interesting and succinct, I am fine with it. Hrodvarsson (talk) 23:55, 22 October 2018 (UTC)
  • Thank you. Foreign-language hook ref for brother AGF; online hook ref for great-great-grandfather and great-great-uncle verified; both cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 00:36, 23 October 2018 (UTC)
