Martin Allwood

[edit]
  • ... that Martin Allwood put Gunvor Hofmo's "Alt jeg bad om, det er også skjedd, / og hjertet—men jeg er bare redd!" as "All I asked for has been granted me—Yet I am scared, although my heart is free."?

Created by Eat me, I'm a red bean (talk) and Mareklug (talk). Nominated by Eat me, I'm a red bean (talk) at 13:08, 31 July 2015 (UTC).

  • Support as another major author. I think it is uncanny to have such an erudite and yet heart-grabbing DYK, in my opinion. We put our hearts into this article, overnight, working via IRC #wikipedia-en. --Mareklug talk 15:42, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
Even before I look at the article the hook has many problems - the article the hook corresponds to should be bolded, and the hook is currently 280 characters - the limit is 200.--Launchballer 20:49, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
  • I tweaked the hook formatting a bit, but, yes, it needs to be severely trimmed, or replaced entirely with a new hook. I've also added credit for Mareklug. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 21:18, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
  •  Done Shortened hook to 197 characters per unix wc from 282. --Mareklug talk 23:32, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
The done thing is to display the new hook as an ALT. The problems extend to the article: A steadfast rule at DYK is that every paragraph must contain at least one reference.--Launchballer 17:06, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
The article has a Swedish language interwiki which itself is very sparse on in-line citations, but that is their wont. I recycled their source which turns out to be an entire collection of material part of which we have been using. See my user page sandbox: user:mareklug/Martin_Allwood. You can effectively put this <ref name=biographical-collection /> after each new paragraph from now on. --Mareklug talk 12:33, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
Full review needed. Nothing personal, but I like to review properly oldest first.--Launchballer 15:56, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
New enough, long enough. Hook short enough and sourced. No neutrality problems found, no copyright problems found. QPQ done and image properly licensed. Good to go. (I must say that my review is based on my view as of 7 August 2015; I am too lazy to have a second look.)--Launchballer 20:56, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
