Paul Drago
- ... that Paul Drago "learned" to perform liposuction over a weekend in Florida from a surgeon not licensed to practice in the United States? Source: "began doing liposuction on patients after attending a weekend seminar from a surgeon who is not licensed in the United States"; "did, however, attend a weekend seminar in Florida to learn Smart Lipo procedure from a surgeon who is not licensed in the United States"

- Comment: This is...a difficult sort of article to write an appropriate hook for, but I believe there's a hook to be made nonetheless. I've given the most balanced/"BLP DYK friendly" one I can think of, and accept further suggestions. I think it's worthwhile to put this article on the MP, but I'm not a subscriber to the "all must have prizes" model of DYK and I'll be happy to withdraw this if it devolves into people nitpicking ALT20s.

Overall: 
Mechanically this nom seems to look okay (QPQ, newness, length, plagiarism free) but I've got some concerns about sourcing, which I've taken to BLP/N for a second opinion. The hook itself is cited to two links to the same questionable source, Couthousenews.com (one of those links is to a primary document). The entire article is weakly sourced (IMHO) especially considering we're dealing with a living subject who practices medicine. There's a link to a law firm website (asserting the subject's legal history), several links to consumer-facing Healthgrades.com, the afore mentioned Courthouse News and the rest are to local area papers. Personally I wouldn't pass this BLP for AFC. If we could see significant source improvement, I'd be happy to give this another look. BusterD (talk) 15:23, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
