 * Hi Wasted, I'll be reviewing this.– Lionel(talk) 07:15, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Article is new enough, long enough, has inline citations. QPQ done. But the hook... well... IMHO it isn't "interesting." Do you an alternate? Please say yes, lol.– Lionel(talk) 07:23, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review. I remember your name from my days doing political articles – you're the guy who started the conservatism project, right?  I fully agree that the hook is not at all hooky ... but I've thought about it and alas I don't have a better suggestion.  Hammond made important contributions but they are the kind that are on the subtle side of things.  This is my 99th DYK nomination and it's possible this is the least hooky of all of them, but that's the way it goes sometimes ...  Wasted Time R (talk) 11:35, 18 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Symbol confirmed.svg have a good memory, Wasted ;-) Yeah, I figured that the hook was as good as it's gonna get lol. I hope you're planning something special for #100, and btw congrats.– Lionel(talk) 12:30, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
