Murder of Michelle Garvey

(

)

... that Michelle Garvey's body was identified after an amateur sleuth submitted a suggestion to police?

ALT1: ... that Michelle Garvey's body was identified after an amateur sleuth submitted a suggestion to police, thirty-one years after her death?

This is a great (if sad) little article. Everything is fine with regard to its newness, length, references, neutrality and paraphrasing. The hook is great and cited – but could I suggest adding an alternative hook below that mentions the body was identified 31 years after the initial discovery? That would make it doubly interesting in my opinion. Also, perhaps some detail could be added to the article about how/why it was determined that she was murdered (the infobox mentions "Homicide by strangulation" but this is not mentioned in the body of the article) although this isn't strictly necessary for DYK promotion. Well done! 97198 (talk) 04:04, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

I've added a second hook and will include strangulation into the article. Thank you! --GouramiWatcher^(?) 14:53, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for that. I've labelled the second hook as ALT1 – this is preferred over the original but both are suitable. Also, just noting that a QPQ review isn't required since this is Gourami Watcher's second nomination. 97198 (talk) 23:12, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
