  • Date (just in time!), length and hook all OK. @MB:, I think MLK day is soon in America (I'm British so not sure when it is) so would you like it held for then? QPQ is needed. No close paraphrasing. Picture licence fine. Ping me once its done. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 21:06, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
The C of E, QPQ done. MLK day this year is Jan 18, so yes this would be good to run on that day as a special occasion hook. MB 21:51, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Yoninah, See special occasion hook here for Jan 18, which I think is Prep 1 as soon as it is empty again. MB 04:40, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  • The source for the Lorraine Motel being the assassination site doesn't mention that it's located in the South Main Street Historic District. Yoninah (talk) 16:33, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
Yoninah, The source (ref 1) is entitled "South Main Street Historic District". Everything in that document is in the district. MB 16:44, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Oh, sorry, I was looking at footnote 10 cited further down. Restoring tick per The C of E's rview. Yoninah (talk) 16:52, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
