Overall:   This is ready, and the promoter can choose the hook. It's too bad that longer articles at DYK typically take a while to get reviewed. SL93 (talk) 01:17, 8 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Sorry we missed this, Daniel Case! In the future, feel free to light a fire under someone's tuchus at WT:DYK if it hasn't been reviewed with less than a week to go. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/they) 12:30, 8 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Mammograms edit

@Daniel Case claims that the cited source says that Sen. Marilyn Moore "performed mammograms" at Planned Parenthood. That's not what it says. The article reads "An employee for Planned Parenthood for eight years, she said she helped women to get mammograms." What she is saying is that clients who came to PP and she wrote up referrals for them to obtain mammograms elsewhere, from some service that actually performs mammograms, not Planned Parenthood. PP does not perform them, never has, and so it is quite impossible that Moore performed mammograms at PP. Daniel Case, I reverted for a reason, and you've contravened my revert without a second thought; I would thank you not to misrepresent the sources, and therefore please revert yourself, or rewrite this passage so that it conforms with what Moore and the source actually said.

@Elizium23: I will, though I would conversely suggest that given how easily this could be parsed the way I wrote it, you might be gentler in your correction since it requires knowledge not given in the text of the source that not everyone has (certainly not, I would guess, the Courant's reporter). In fact, you could have avoided this whole kerfuffle entirely by simply rewriting the text of the article yourself as you are now imploring me too (I mean, I understand, some people aren't terribly good at this sort of rewriting, but usually they're nice enough to tell you this when they ask you to do it).
