Comic Con Scotland

  • ... that at the inaugural Comic Con Scotland, Incredible Hulk actor Lou Ferrigno celebrated his 67th birthday with a Hulk-themed birthday cake? [1]
    • ALT1:... that ...? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)

Created by Surflou (talk). Nominated by The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) at 23:20, 1 June 2020 (UTC).

  • @Surflou and The Squirrel Conspiracy: This article has a large amount of unsourced content. The History and organisation section has 4 unsourced paragraphs, the Venue, Show features, and Location, dates and notable guests sections are completely unsourced. Therefore, it doesn't currently satisfy Wikipedia:Verifiability, and so this DYK nomination does not pass as things stand. Please can you add sources to every section- 1 per paragraph as a minimum, or remove all unsourced content? I can conduct full review once this issue is resolved.

Joseph2302: I'm just nominating articles to try to increase the diversity of topics and regions covered at DYK. The original author is Surflou, and I will leave it to them to make these changes. If they choose not to or are unable to do so, you can close out this nomination as withdrawn in seven days. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 19:46, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
Note added on user's talkpage, hopefully they will address the issues. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:35, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
It has now been 12 days, and the article creator has not shown interest in DYK. And the article nominator is leaving the improvements to the article creator. Therefore, although the hook is interesting, the article is not sourced well enough for DYK, so the only sensible course of action is to reject this nomination.
