Milo Yiannopoulos

(

... that Milo Yiannopoulos (pictured) arranged a moonwalking flash mob at Liverpool Street station as a tribute to Michael Jackson shortly after his death?

Reviewed: Syque Caesar
Comment: Disclosure: I am acquainted with the subject. The anniversary of Jackson's funeral was yesterday, so this hook is very topical regarding the context of Jackson's death in the summer months. WilliamH (talk) 21:38, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

New enough and long enough at time of nomination. Article fully supported by inline citations. QPQ done. Image has acceptable copyright. Article is neutral enough. Plagiarism spotcheck [1][2] shows no cause for concern. Hook is properly formatted. Hooked fact appears in article and is supported by sources. --LauraHale (talk) 07:43, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Good to go. --LauraHale (talk) 07:43, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Note that PFHLai promoted this hook into a prep area but did so without the media. I asked why, and he kindly reconsidered. Discussion: User talk:PFHLai#DYK Question WilliamH (talk) 21:56, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
- A pity. Its quirky nature made it a natural for the final slot, but the image faces stiff competition for the lead. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:27, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Yes, there are better pics for the lead. PumpkinSky talk 12:10, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

That's fine then. I'm happy for any DYK admin to put this in a prep area. WilliamH (talk) 14:52, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
