Tears of the Prophets edit

Terry Farrell, photographed in 2009

5x expanded by Miyagawa (talk). Self nominated at 10:33, 8 June 2013 (UTC).

  • Striking Alt1, which at 239 characters (excluding "pictured") is way too long for DYK. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:12, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Article - expansion started on 6 June when 1065 characters, now 13163 characters of readable prose, so long enough with 12x expansion; neutral; at least one inline citation to every required paragraph; no copy vios detected using earwig/duplication detector; assessed as start class.
  • Hook - within length criteria at 166 characters; correctly formatted; and interesting.
  • QPQ done; image license is cc-by-sa-2.0.
I did a very light copyedit but could the ref for the hook be placed immediately adjacent to the sentence, please? SagaciousPhil - Chat 11:43, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
[Edit conflict.] Article: The article was expanded more than five times. The article appears to be sufficiently referenced, except for the "Plot" section which is completely unreferenced. I don't know if that's a deal-breaker. A DYK volunteer should advise on this point.
Hook: The hook is an appropriate length, and is referenced by footnotes 2 (offline source accepted in good faith), 4 and 5. — SMUconlaw (talk) 11:51, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
  • The plot section is not required to be referenced. Sorry about the edit conflict! SagaciousPhil - Chat 11:59, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
  • No worries, and thanks for the clarification. — SMUconlaw (talk) 13:15, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Thanks for the reviews. I've added the citation into the lead for the hook fact. Miyagawa (talk) 12:19, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
Okay, thanks. Hook is now cited and referenced in the last sentence of the first lead paragraph. Looks like DYK reviewers are a bit like buses and we all come along at once! SagaciousPhil - Chat 12:26, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
