without image. Copyright issue there. Tweaked the hook a little. --Redtigerxyz Talk 05:20, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
By DYK rules, the article text that supports the facts in the hooks must have inline source citations no later than the end of the sentence that fact appears in. The article, instead, has a collection of inline sources at the end of each of its paragraphs. This must be fixed before the nomination can be approved.

- Had verified that references at the end of the para do in fact support the text. Wikipedia:Inline citation permits references at end of paragraph, not necessarily sentence. --Redtigerxyz Talk 11:46, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
- WP:DYK is very clear on this; 3b states, "The hook fact must have an inline citation right after it, since the fact is an extraordinary claim; citing the hook fact at the end of the paragraph is not acceptable." For an article to pass DYK, it has to meet this stricter standard. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:41, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks, Mehrajmir. The source citation added after the opening sentence does indeed support the hook, so the DYK requirements are satisfied in that regard. The rest per Redtigerxyz's approval. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:41, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
