 * Symbol voting keep.svg Article was moved to mainspace on 20 February and nominated two days later. There are no copyvio issues; although the automatic checker complains about the abundance of the phrase "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" which is a non-issue). The main hook is interesting, but I'll have to AGF on the source as I couldn't get the Google preview working. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  15:32, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg Hi, I came by to promote the first hook, but there is no inline cite for this fact. Please provide one. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 18:33, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello, I had already included a source for all three of my hooks. The information came out of a printed source so I couldn't link directly to the source. To add to the credibility, I included the direct quote from the book. I am fairly new to both DYK and Wikipedia so if this is not adequately sourced, please let me know specifically what I could do to improve it. Thank you for your time and consideration.

 * Hi when we ask for an inline cite, we mean in the article, not on the nomination template. For the first hook, which I'd like to promote, please add the cite immediately after this sentence in the article: Kane used fictitious names to protect the Saints' anonymity. You may cite just the book source, or add the quote from the book if you like. Here are citation templates. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 22:49, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Cited it in the article. Thanks for your help and patience.Skyes(BYU) (talk) 15:35, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg Thank you. Restoring tick per Ritchie333's review. Yoninah (talk) 18:44, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
