 * Symbol confirmed.svg Long enough, recent GA, hook in article, partially sourced to offline sources assumed in good faith. No obvious plagiarism from the online sources I checked. I see no issues for DYK purposes. Well done.--Wehwalt (talk) 12:24, 25 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you for taking the time to do the DYK review. Garagepunk66 (talk) 00:06, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg Sorry to "wreck" this, but your hook, at 279 characters, is much too long. How about ALT1? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:47, 27 September 2016 (UTC)


 * ALT1 ... that the Wrecking Crew supplied the instrumental tracks on dozens of hits recorded in Los Angeles during the 1960s including "California Dreamin'", "Mr. Tambourine Man", "He's a Rebel", and "Good Vibrations"?
 * Cwmhiraeth, I don't mind shortening the hook line. ALT 1 would be fine.  I didn't realize the 279 characters limit.  ALT1 is good solution. Garagepunk66 (talk) 00:19, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
 * ALT1 sounds good to me.--Wehwalt (talk) 00:44, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
 * FIXED:Good news Wehwalt and Cwmhiraeth. I have fixed the problem.  I went up to the top and redacted the old hook and replaced it with ALT1.  DYK ready to roll now! Garagepunk66 (talk) 00:56, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
