  • Comment: Two (2) QPQs since it's a double hook; the reviewer of this double hook also receives 2 QPQ credits. Happy to suggest more ALT hooks if needed. Association for Union Democracy was expanded 5x since 8 April 2023 (per DYKcheck).

Created by Cielquiparle (talk) and Namiba (talk). Nominated by Cielquiparle (talk) at 16:08, 14 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Herman Benson; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page. Both articles:

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: @Cielquiparle and Namiba: Nice work on these two articles. I like ALT1 best, but all three hooks are good to go. Both articles are new and long enough at the time of nomination, and are both neutral and free of plagiarism; however, Association for Union Democracy#Founders and staff does not seem to have any inline sources. Once this is fixed, I can approve this nomination. Epicgenius (talk) 15:15, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

@Epicgenius: Thanks for reviewing. I've added refs for the "Notable people" section. (I also like ALT1 best.) Cielquiparle (talk) 16:06, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

No problem, and thanks for the quick response. Looks good to go now. Epicgenius (talk) 16:15, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
