 * I will review this article. epicgenius (talk) 14:52, 3 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Adding a talkpage reference list. epicgenius (talk) 14:55, 3 April 2017 (UTC)


 * I think ALT1 is the most interesting out of the three options presented (ALT0 sounds like merely a list of different things the museum has hosted - even though it's more than that - while ALT2 is obscure). If there are no objections, I will approve ALT1 when I am finished. epicgenius (talk) 18:19, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Also, the sourcing has been checked. Something is wrong with the ksstradio.com references, as they are giving an internal error. Indian Summer Days does not have an archived version, but Hopkins County History does. All the other sources are verifiable, though. epicgenius (talk) 18:24, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks, epicgenius. The KSST source was literally fine two days ago and I'm hoping it is just a temporary issue. Would it be possible to check it again tomorrow or the day after? Barring that, how would you recommend I best address this situation for purposes of the DYK process? Thanks in advance. Michael Barera (talk) 03:40, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * As it is only one source that is dead, I can wait up to a week for you to find a replacement, or barring that, to wait until the URL becomes live again. Otherwise, we can just assume good faith with that one source, noting that it is a dead link in the citation (it isn't necessary to have the URL be live, just verifiable, even if that verification happens in print). epicgenius (talk) 11:38, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * the KSST links pull up fine for me. Maybe it was a hiccup on their end? — Maile (talk) 20:33, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Yep, everything works fine now. Still, these URLs may be susceptible to going down in the future, so Michael may want to make an archive just in case. Symbol confirmed.svg Anyway, I approve ALT1. epicgenius (talk) 20:49, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
