  • Comment: Please save for May 9, his 59th birthday (exactly seven weeks and three days from now). Request to IAR the "six weeks in advance" rule. Eligible per Rule 1d, because it only appeared in the "Recent Deaths" section of ITN and not as a bold link.

• DYK was nominated just in time to match the new enough threshold and is also long enough. Although I do spot some occurrences where the prose is kinda similar to the source it's nowhere near red flag territory. The article is sourced properly and uses a neutral tone. The hook is short enough, image is free, and a QPQ has been completed- wait- Don Cheadle is War Machine?! I certainly did not know that! I know that Marvel is big right now, but I doubt there are some people (like me) who won't know who he is from a name statement either. Because of that I lean towards Alt1, but I approve Alt2 as well. Good Job! Panini! • 🥪 02:29, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
