A good article right out of the hat! Can we please have a photo and use this on top? Date and hook check out. -SusanLesch (talk) 20:37, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
- @Susan: I'm not very familiar with the DYK process. Do you mean a photo that relates to the DYK hook? Here are a couple of images that are relevant to the hook. Sorry about my ignorance. --Noleander (talk) 20:54, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
Thank you. The photo of Sanger will work out. -SusanLesch (talk) 21:13, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
- I renamed the article from "History of the birth control movement in the United States" to "Birth control movement in the United States". Both titles were equally valid, and it was a coin toss. When I first created the article, I went with "History of ..." because the main scholarly text on the subject was named exactly that. But WP:TITLE urges conciseness, and since the article is not a "history only" sub-article of a Main article, the shorter title is probably better. Let me know if there are any concerns about the new title. --Noleander (talk) 14:25, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
