DYK for HMS Owen Glendower?

Hi. I've nominated HMS Owen Glendower, an article you worked on, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Wikipedia:Did you know. You can see the hook for the article here, where you can improve it if you see fit. Please feel free to propose new hooks, if you like. If you can put in more refs & footnotes to the article, that would be great. Thanks. Happy editing. Cheers! --PFHLai (talk) 18:48, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

You're welcome, Acad Ronin. Thank you for adding the refs. More information about the DYK nomination process can be found here. Hope this helps. You have been doing good work in Wikipedia. Please be encouraged to nominate your next wikicontribution for DYK. Happy editing. Take care. --PFHLai (talk) 19:00, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Am having trouble finding my source's source for the two items that really require sources, particularly the DYK one, so hold off on it for now. My source is a website by a serious researcher of the period, but one who unfortunately does not cite his sources. Will continue to try and find printed source. Regards, Acad Ronin (talk) 19:36, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

It looks like you've already put in quite a few footnotes, and the ref to support the DYK hook is in. Thank you so much. If possible, please add a few more. DYK clerks often ask for at least a footnote in every single paragraph after the introduction. I'm usually not around during the work week, so I won't be able to do much for the time being. When you think you've added enough footnotes and refs to the article, you might want to mention this on T:TDYK#HMS Owen Glendower. Happy editing. Cheers! --PFHLai (talk) 05:07, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
