 * Comment: neither hooks are very interesting to a broad audience, and red-links are not permitted in hooks. However, I think there is enough material on Sloboda to warrant a short BLP article (beyond the recent media spike, she has been mentioned in important discoveries dating back to the late 1980s), and thus a potential double nom with a more interesting hook, such as ... that the dinosaur Wendiceratops (pictured) was named for fossil hunter Wendy Sloboda, who had it tattooed on her arm in celebration?" (see ) I ask for time to build an adequate and balanced article on Sloboda to DYK standards. --Animalparty-- (talk) 21:46, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Agree - I think your proposed hook is more interesting and....go for it. There is a delay in things being promoted anyway. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 23:11, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Wendy Sloboda article is now in mainspace. I added article to DYK nompage links above, further tweaks may be needed. Formally proposing ALT2 below. --Animalparty-- (talk) 18:47, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
 * ALT2 ... that the dinosaur Wendiceratops (pictured) was named for fossil hunter Wendy Sloboda, who then had it tattooed on her arm in celebration?

Both are new enough, long enough, fully cited, have no close paraphrasing per spot checks; hook (ALT2) is interesting and short enough, and image looks good (freely licensed and gorgeous!). My only question is about the QPQ - I think there should be 2, am I missing something? Best, Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 07:07, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
 * An oversight on my part! I'll do a QPQ review tomorrow. --Animalparty! (talk) 07:12, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
 * And by tomorrow I meant today. Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Heliofungia actiniformis. --Animalparty! (talk) 01:43, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
