  • Hey Jon698, while the hook is interesting and the article is generally well-sourced (could use an inline citation for the death date, though), it's not quite long enough yet - need 1,500 characters of prose and now I see 1,098. Would it be possible to expand the article with existing sources? Juxlos (talk) 15:10, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Juxlos Done. I just increased it to over 1,500 characters. - Jon698 (talk) 16:06, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Nice work - any sources for his death date? I've noticed that the sources all predate his death. Juxlos (talk) 16:09, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Juxlos Well I tried finding an obituary or any reference to his death from a source, but I couldn't find anything. The only thing I have to go off of for his death date is the Find A Grave external link. Should it be removed? - Jon698 (talk) 16:47, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
  • If you can't be sure that's him then yeah, remove it. Juxlos (talk) 16:50, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Juxlos Yes - Jon698 (talk) 17:20, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Jon698 The QPQ is currently invalid (as the article you're reviewing is too short), so you may want to replace it. Juxlos (talk) 17:35, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Juxlos I remembered that I had the DYK nomination review of Gessner Harrison from February that I never used. - Jon698 (talk) 18:24, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Good to go then. Juxlos (talk) 19:08, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
