 * Symbol confirmed.svg new enough, long enough. The hook was not supported by the test in the article but is in the source. I added the word "posthumously" to help it all to match.Thelmadatter (talk) 15:01, 30 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Symbol possible vote.svg I am pulling this from the queue because parts of this article are a copyvio from this source. Gatoclass (talk) 06:28, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Please convert the bare links in the refs as well (DYK rule #D3)  SagaciousPhil   -  Chat  07:01, 2 December 2013 (UTC)


 * I would also like to point out to the original reviewer that the hook must be supported in the text of the article to be acceptable in DYK. It is insufficient for the information to be in a source; if the fact is not in the article, then it is not eligible for use in a DYK hook. I have accordingly struck the hook; a new hook must be created, or the relevant facts added to the article. BlueMoonset (talk) 07:37, 2 December 2013 (UTC)


 * That's rather cold. Better to yell at the nominator than help him/her out? The issue was small, just that it was awarded after his death. Since the source stated such, I fixed the article. That's what we Wikipedians are supposed to do. However, I agree with the copyvio issue.Thelmadatter (talk) 14:49, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, we all make mistakes - I'm sure you get it right most of the time. Bluemoonset is correct though, that the hook fact has to be in the article not just the source - I've made the same error myself on one or two occasions. Gatoclass (talk) 17:02, 2 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg All are done. Please review it.--Gfosankar (talk) 14:01, 3 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg There are still several tags in the last paragraph, and the tone of the Role in War on Terror section could be made more neutral. Yoninah (talk) 22:41, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg All issues have been resolved. Article is new enough, long enough, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook ref verified and cited inline. QPQ done. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 16:43, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
