  • Reviewed: Bit of a strange one. I reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/Phase retrieval, which after a bit of mucking around was almost DYK ready when the nominator withdrew it. The nomination template was then deleted (don't ask me why).
  • Comment: Recent expansion.

Created/expanded by Gadfium (talk), Schwede66 (talk). Nominated by Schwede66 (talk) at 18:49, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

  • Solid 5x expansion. Hook source and date check out. Image is public domain. Ready to go. -SusanLesch (talk) 16:41, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
  • Yes, it would. I didn't know that there's a specific day, but we (Wikiproject New Zealand) are this month expanding a few articles of New Zealand suffragists. It's 8 March here already, so somebody better promote this swiftly :) Schwede66 19:13, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
  • I'm concerned that some of the phrasings in this article may be too close to those of the sources, particularly this source. Nikkimaria (talk) 22:03, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
  • I have reworded some of the phrasings. Please let me know if you think others are too closely paraphrasing.-gadfium 04:07, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
  • Quite a bit of rewording has been done by Orlady now. Would you like to be added as a contributor (if so, I'd be happy to add you to the credit list), or would you like to appear as a reviewer? Schwede66 20:59, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

That's a terrible hook. It's utterly uninteresting. How about ALT1:

Kaldari (talk) 21:06, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

ALT1 is fine by me. I have added two wikilinks to it. Schwede66 22:25, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
  • As noted above, I spent some time with this article, mainly focused on edits to further reduce a perception of close paraphrasing. I think the concerns should be resolved -- but I hope that Gadfium and Schwede66 will forgive me (and correct my errors) if I distorted any content. I started out to re-review the article, and I'll finish that task. The ALT1 hook is a good one; I agree with Kaldari that the original hook suggestion is less interesting. --Orlady (talk) 03:18, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
