Review Good to go! New article, DYK timely nominated. Meets core policies and guidelines, and in particular: is neutral; cites sources with inline citations; is free of close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations and plagiarism. Earwig's copy violation detector: Maria von Linden report gives it a clean bill. Hook is hooky enough, I think, and relates directly to the essence of the article. I took the liberty of moving a prepositional phrase to make it clearer. I would go with the first hook. It is interesting, decently neutral, and appropriately cited. QPQ done. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 14:51, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for boldly fixing rather than listing errors. Looks great Victuallers (talk) 15:38, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
ALT2 ... that bacteriologistMaria von Linden received a patent for her discovery that copper salts could be used as a disinfectant?
Review Good to go! Alt 2 is confirmed as being supported by in line references. But in my opinion it is far less interesting and important than the original hook. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 13:46, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
