Created by SheffGruff (talk). Self nominated at 14:37, 20 February 2014 (UTC).
Article is new enough, long enough, well-referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook refs are verified and cited inline. No QPQ necessary for nominator who has less than 5 DYK credits. I prefer ALT2, although I appreciate the brevity of ALT3. The only problem is that the word "sacked" appears in all the sources. To avoid close paraphrasing, I changed it to "dismissed" in the article. You could also change it to "fired", "discharged", or "removed". What do you think? Yoninah (talk) 20:02, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
