  • There are some immediate problems. Firstly, the article is not long enough, at 1,414 bytes of prose. Secondly, I can't see where Heffernan's birth and death dates are sourced. Also, regarding "This caused a 15 year long search" - who conducted the search? I think the article needs a bit more work before it's ready for a DYK nomination.

  • @Ritchie333: Should be in somewhat better shape now. GMGtalk 16:48, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
Nice work. All issues addressed. For some reason, I had difficulty accessing the sources; perhaps my connection's on the blink, so I've had to AGF. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 16:56, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
Thanks both, I was going to look at these issues this evening. I've added GreenMeansGo as a DYK contributor to this nom, since they helped a lot today. Joseph2302 (talk) 18:17, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
Wish we could get an official transcript of the documentary to pull info from. Not sure how we might pull that from the English subtitles though (assuming the English subtitles are official). GMGtalk 18:19, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
