- All appears fine, judged against the criteria:
- New enough: Yes – article started 17 October 2016.
- Long enough: Yes – c. 4,650 characters
- Within policy: Yes – All information appears supported by citations (minimum of one per paragraph); not a BLP; sources are all reliable; no copyright violations,(according to Earwig's Copyvio Detector).
- Hook:
- Is 98 characters, so short enough
- Is interesting enough (to me at least!)
- Is cited: Yes – Bletchley information supported by two citations; the "Tunny" machine supported by one. No "negative aspects" to worry about
- Image:
- Yes, present in the article
- Yes, shows up well in thumbnail size
- Is free from restrictions (image was released under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license)
This looks OK for me. However - note to the closers - please note that this is my first DYK review, so a quick glance over the main points just to double check would be appreciated. Please ping me if there is anything else I need to do. - The Bounder (talk) 08:56, 18 October 2016 (UTC) 16:03, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
- The Bounder Review looks good to me, more comprehensive than most reviews on here. Joseph2302 20:27, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
