  • DYK check says this has appeared on In The News before? --valereee (talk) 12:47, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
  • @Valereee: The article did indeed appear at ITN. It was featured in the "Recent deaths" section, as a non-bolded link; per eligibility criterion 1d, it is still eligible for DYK. Vanamonde (Talk) 17:29, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
  • Vanamonde93, thank you! I couldn't figure out how to view it -- could get to the On This Day and saw that it was just a birth date. --valereee (talk) 18:05, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

ALT0 good. Great article about one of my favorite writers! I will continue to check source support on the other ALTs in case this one for any reason gets pushback, but this article is good to go. --valereee (talk) 09:15, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
