DYK articles I wrote or expanded

 * ...that heavyweight boxer Joe Baksi recorded nine victories in his first year as a professional, including one over future actor Jack Palance?


 * I didn't know about DYK. I just expanded the article, and discovered someone nominated it.  That felt so cool, I went off to expand another article, specifically...


 * ...that Alfred Winslow Jones, father of the hedge fund industry, was a sociologist who obtained his idea to start a fund while writing an article for Fortune magazine?

DYK articles I helped edit

 * ...that Gregory S. Martin (pictured) was the first non-Navy officer nominated to head the U.S. Pacific Command, but withdrew after Senator John McCain questioned whether he had "the quality to command"?
 * Here are my Edits. I was especially proud of finding McCain's quote "Now I question whether you have the quality to command"' that I then used in the hook.


 * ...that the Foedus Cassianum, named after the negotiator, Spurius Cassius, was the first of many foedera signed by Rome?
 * I made Foedus Cassianum from this, and learned ALOT in the process. Before this article, I thought foedera was a  hat.

DYK articles I nominated

 * ...that during the 1936–1939 Arab revolt in Palestine, the Palestine Police Force (fort pictured) was augmented by the Jewish Settlement Police, Jewish Supernumerary Police and the Special Night Squads?
 * I just liked the picture.


 * ... that a revolution in 1688 in the Kingdom of Siam (modernday Thailand) severed virtually all ties with the Western world for nearly two centuries?
 * Because, no..I didn't know that. Foreign relations were reestablished by  King Mongkut, who was the insipration for The King and I
