 * ... that Samuel Johnson boasted that he once knocked publisher Thomas Osborne to the ground with a heavy folio?

 * This is my first nomination, but I reviewed Andrea Doria-class battleship anyway.—Neil 12:43, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Article - created new on 12 March, so new enough; 5066 characters of readable prose, so long enough; neutral; at least one inline citation to every paragraph; no copy vios detected using duplication detector; assessed as start class; and no BLP concerns (although the subject died a long time ago).
 * Hook - within length criteria at 107 characters; correctly formatted; correctly cited/supported by ref #1 in penultimate paragraph; and interesting.
 * QPQ done (although not required as nominator does not yet have five DYK credits); no image used.
