Review: Date, length , cited hook , policy , review

The source says "Omri was at a show in south Florida when he learned of the competition, prompting a quick trip back with a timeframe of just three days to create and submit sketches." This does not match with the current hook - perhaps all the others had longer, Omri just happened to hear about it late. Are there any other sources for this?
 * The hook:
 * I don't know of any other sources.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:29, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I think it would be better to consider an alternate hook (like the Toews jersey one.) Zagal e jo^^^ 18:49, 3 September 2011 (UTC)


 * ALT1: ... that the Michael Jordan statue has worn a variety of different sports clothes?
 * ALT2: ... that the Michael Jordan statue wore the jersey of ice hockey player Jonathan Toews?

I'm not sure that this is the correct title - either it should be The Spirit (statue) or perhaps Michael Jordan statue.
 * The title:
 * It is known more commonly as the Michael Jordan s/Statue. The Spirit is not widely used.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:29, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think "Michael Jordan s/Statue" is used as a name; it's more of a placeholder because people aren't aware it has a name, or don't know its name. (Like how people call the Smurfit-Stone Building the "Diamond Building".) I'd prefer moving it to The Spirit (statue), or if not that, Michael Jordan statue, with a lower-case "s".

 * Look at the sources in the article. I have never seen the trib mention the "Diamond Building. Not averse to lower case s, especially when looking at sources like the Los Angeles Times which uses that syntax for numerous statues.

No recent review done, I believe. violet/riga [talk] 14:26, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Done. See above.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:57, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

This nomination is ready using ALT1 or ALT2, the latter probably being favoured. violet/riga [talk] 17:20, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
