Betelguese, a trip through hell

 * ... that Colonel Roosevelt missed a trip through hell while on a trip to Africa?
 * Comment: At the English Wikisource, we may try to feature this text around the week of Halloween, but due to DYK time restrictions I have nominated it today. Can this be held off until then to coincide with its feature at Wikisource?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Meets all DYK requirements, happy for it to be kept for Halloween week - in fact it'd be fine for Halloween itself. Miyagawa   (talk)  16:56, 16 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment - could the link to >> this complete wikisource text << "Read the entire book here"... be made more obvious? Either in the hook or in the Wikipedia article, or the article's info box?  The great link seems to only be available buried half way in the middle of the References section at the foot of the article.  Just a thought.  Mediation4u (talk) 10:05, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
 * YES! This would be a really good idea. --Sue Rangell &#91; citation needed &#93; 04:00, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I've brought this up at Template talk:Infobox book, in which I've asked if there would be an issue adding a parameter with something like "Read online." It has one editors support, but hasn't gotten any other responses. Without admin rights I cannot edit the template. - Theornamentalist (talk) 10:47, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
