 * Symbol confirmed.svg 5X expansion good.  Hook checks out even though source is in Norwegian (Google translate verified hook).  Suggest alternate hook to include location of hotel:

 * Thank you for the review, and for providing an alternative hook! I checked your suggested alt hook with location, and corrected the link to "Dalen". If this hook is used, I also propose to de-link the country name (Norway), and possibly move (pictured) to appear directly after the bolded Dalen Hotel. Oceanh (talk) 14:49, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Thanks for pointing at insufficient inline citations; I also notice that the expander of the article now has provided inline citations to every section. I listed a book about the hotel as a possible further source. Oceanh (talk) 09:53, 7 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote4.png Needs reviewer to confirm that article conforms to DYK rules and ALT hook is valid (new reviewer needed for ALT hook). BlueMoonset (talk) 03:04, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Pictogram voting keep.svg AGF for foreign-language hook fact. Expansion was recent and plenty long enough. No close paraphrasing detected (looked at two sources).  Suitably referenced. ALT1 is good to go.  Schwede  66  04:55, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
