- Please submit a proper hook that contains a link to the DYK candidate article. --70.31.9.174 (talk) 04:56, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
This nomination does not have a proper hook, the article was moved to article space on October 28 but wasn't nominated until nine days later on November 6, four days too late for DYK, and looking at the article, it's based on primary sources, with a single secondary source covering a sentence or two. (The nomination template was also incorrectly placed in the special occasion holding area, where it does not belong.) The late submission is enough to prevent approval, and the other issues are serious enough that there is no point in making an exception. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:40, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
