Hi Ykraps, review follows: article moved to mainspace 6 November; article exceeds minimum length and is well written; sources are largely offline but appear reliable; I didn't note any issue with overly close paraphrasing from online sources, AGF on the offline; hooks are interesting, I note the article says he "never went to sea again" not that he "never worked again", the former leaves open the possibility that he might have a land-based appointment. If the sources support it could you amend the article to suit, otherwise change the hook to "never served at sea again" or similar? If the image is proposed it needs to appear in the article also - Dumelow (talk) 09:05, 7 November 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Dumelow, Thanks for reviewing this nomination and for raising those two, very good, points. I was not aware of that ruling about images. The source says he was "...never employed again". I have made the necessary changes to the article. Thanks again. --Ykraps (talk) 09:34, 7 November 2021 (UTC)
Hi Ykraps, yes the image one doesn't come up often; it's covered at point three of Wikipedia:Did_you_know#Images. All looks fine now - Dumelow (talk) 12:13, 7 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Dumelow: any chance the hooks could be cited inline? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 08:18, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- Not my nomination (and possibly my most disliked DYK rule) but pinging Ykraps. To comply you'll need to duplicate the refs at the end of the paragraph to the sentences supporting the hooks - Dumelow (talk) 08:51, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Theleekycauldron:@Dumelow:, Sorry, I'm not sure what's being asked here. Which part doesn't have an inline citation? -- 09:23, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Ykraps, it's rule 3b here. The sentence supporting the hook must be followed immediately by an inline citation, not just the usual practice of one at the end of the paragraph. In this case I think you'd need to add an additional citation at the end of the sentence "Despite being honourably acquited, Agamemnon was Rose's last ship." - Dumelow (talk) 08:03, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
