General: Article is new enough and long enough |

Policy compliance:
Hook eligibility:
The DOMELRE was the first successful, mass marketed package automatic electric refrigeration unitand says what DOMELRE stands for, but it doesn't say that this model was "the first domestic electric refrigerator" or something to that tune. That said, this claim seems to appear for instance here, so please include the source in the text.

QPQ: Done. |
Overall: The article is new and long enough to proceed to the DYK main page list. The sourcing, apart from the claim that it is the first domestic refrigerator ever produced (which is easily fixable, as mentioned above), is adequate. No plagiarism or neutrality issues detected. Hook is very interesting, it's just the source that doesn't quite say the thing presented in the hook, but again I was able to confirm it in other sources. Picture is good to go; QPQ check positive. Overall, the only problem is the "first domestic fridge ever" claim, but there are sources saying that, so when this small issue is solved (and that should literally take less than a minute), the article will pass the review.

Refrigeration Nation indicates that there were several domestic models in the period 1910–15 but that they were too bulky, being based on industrial models. The DOMELRE was the first to "survive its infancy" but still sold only 525 units. Andrew🐉( talk) 17:41, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
