No more radio stations in DYK please, we've had far too many lately. Zin92 (talk) 07:46, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @Zin92: You've now posted this comment on at least three of Sammi's nominations. If you think this is an issue, feel free to bring it up on WT:DYK or even expand your own article. But your personal preferences for or against a specific topic are not part of the DYK criteria. Epicgenius (talk) 13:34, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Expansion checks out. No Copyvio. Sourcing is up to the high standards I would expect from Sammi Brie. I would drop the word "briefly" from the hook, since it is not in the sources. --Guerillero ^{Parlez Moi} 09:07, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'd be fine with that (the period in question is 1952–56), Guerillero. See... Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 16:16, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
