  • Thanks for the comment parameter, you've done my job for me! Checked everything over and it all matches what you've written. I've tweaked the original hook and striked the alternatives. Interesting hook. Good to go.  — ₳aron 11:01, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
If it helps the approval process, as I have done a number of DYK reviews myself, I don't see why not.
Should there be a mention of his political affiliation, or does that violate WP:POV? It is verifiable.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 18:58, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
