This was before he became a drummer presumably :) Article was created on 1 March by nominator. Article has 4816 characters of readable prose and is cited with inline citations to reliable sources. Complies with WP policies and guidelines. Hook is interesting and cited in the article. Earwig's Copyvio tool is down at the moment and Google Books won't allow me access all the sources so am assuming good faith with regards to verfiability and close paraphrasing (I have checked all those that I could and they seem okay)--Ykraps (talk) 09:01, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
@Philafrenzy: Not relevant to DYK but can you do something about the "He was also the organiser of the cab drivers group of members which was claimed to have 1,000 members" sentence? The repetition of 'members' is a bit clunky.--Ykraps (talk) 09:01, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks, done. The sources are silent about whether he had any musical ability. Philafrenzy (talk) 11:40, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
- Returned to prep for later promotion with image. Right now we've run a series of black and white person images, so let's do a few more colorful ones before this runs. Yoninah (talk) 21:33, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
