The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Comment: My third DYK. I understand the sourcing on the first one might be a bit weak, but the hook is a fun one that exemplifies a typical Gene Principe broadcast. Suggestions and changes welcome.
New enough and long enough. No QPQ needed (3rd DYK nom). Image is freely licensed. I cannot view ALT1 (paywall) and don't know if I like the topic as a hook, but ALT0—relying on a video—is a touch flimsy for my taste (which is a shame, as that is the best hook by far and I'd prefer it to run over ALT2). ALT2 is fine. No other issues. [Disclosure: I provided a NewspaperArchive clipping for this page at the nominator's request.]
