  • Drive-by comments, not a review: Gareth E Kegg, pls be reminded of the QPQ peer review requirement for self-nominations. Thanks. --PFHLai (talk) 03:42, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
  • Construction of hook OK. Length OK, submitted within 5 days. Expanded the article text from cite to ensure the text covers material in the hook. Accepting printed references in good faith; other refs check. Links lead to interesting content on an obscure historical prank, the London theater world, and the history of disguise. Could use an infobox. Basically good to go. Djembayz (talk) 17:48, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
  • There has been no quid pro quo (QPQ) review done as yet. The nominator appears to have had over five DYK submissions sent to the main page in the past, meaning that a QPQ review of another nomination is required in order to proceed with this one. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:02, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Nominator was notified of issues with this nomination well over a week ago, and despite other activity on Wikipedia has made no attempt to engage here. With great reluctance, I'm marking this as failing because the QPQ was not undertaken, as is required under DYK rules. If the review is done before this review is formally rejected, this could become an approval; I'll leave a note on Gareth's talk page to that effect. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:18, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
