David Sanchez (activist)

  • ... that in 1972, "Prime Minister" David Sanchez led an occupation of Catalina Island by the Brown Berets meant to draw attention on the continuing struggles of Mexican-Americans in the United States? Mejia, Brittny (2020-08-16). "Nearly half a century ago, Chicano activists occupied Catalina Island. Locals feared a Mexican 'invasion'". Los Angeles Times.
This is a possible double hook.

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

  • Adequate sourcing: No - Citations generally good. (AGF for offline sources cited.) However, the cite for the sentence "With his leadership, the Young Chicanos For Community Action eventually became the Brown Berets." does not appear to support that statement. Please address. (The Teen Vogue article cited elsewhere would support this statement, if you care to just cite it instead.) [Problem fixed]
  • Neutral: Yes
  • Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing: Yes
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: The newness requirement is only met for David Sanchez. I don's know if there's a special rule for double hooks, but Vickie Castro was created on 13 March, slightly more than seven days prior to this 21 March nomination, so approving this DYK nomination as new enough is based on the assumption that we won't use the double-hook option. Based on that assumption and with the citation fix noted above, this should be ready to go. Interesting article. Thanks for writing it. JohnPomeranz (talk) 22:31, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

  • @JohnPomeranz: Vickie Castro was featured today. This can be reviewed on its own. --evrik (talk) 17:03, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
* OK, and I fixed the citation issue that I noted above myself. This article is ready to go for DYK. --JohnPomeranz 22:11, April 7, 2021
