 * Hook and content check out. Should Cleo in the article link to Cleo (magazine)?  It currently links to a DAB page.  I only ask this because I think it might be necessary to link it in the hook.  I had no idea what the Victorian Cleo Bachelor of the Year was.  After finding the magazine, I take that it is similar to GQ.  In addition, he was only a finalist, so it might be better to discuss that prior to his disablement he worked as a plumber.  The plumber story is interesting, but I can't think of an incredibly hooky way to say it.  In any case, everything Symbol confirmed.svg checks out.  I'd just like to see a thought on the lead.

 * Oops. yeah.  I fixed that Cleo problem.  Disambigs are not my strong point. :(  Hard to find interesting things in some articles. : / Lead does need to be improved a bit but hard to do when article so short. ;) --LauraHale (talk) 05:10, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
 * On that note, the article appears long enough, but DYK check doesn't appear to be working. I get 1784 B when using a page size check (that only looks at prose size), so it appears like it meets the 1500 character requirement (one byte=one character).

 * DYK Check for me says:


 * Prose size (text only): 1784 characters (297 words) "readable prose size"
 * Article created by LauraHale on July 6, 2012
 * Article moved from User:LauraHale/Jack Swift (athlete) on July 23, 2012
 * T his makes it eligible because 1,500+ characters and on July 23 it was moved. :) in any case, just so no confusion, can you toss another preceding green tick before a comment to make clear this is good to go? Green ticks at the end and conversations sometimes make it hard for movers to determine the status. :) --LauraHale (talk) 05:21, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
