@RevelationDirect: I will review this in a couple hours (currently busy with other things in real life), if no one else does (but I will need to request someone else to "check my work" because I am a new DYK reviewer. GoldRomean (talk) 15:42, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: 125 million (hook) or 125 (article)? Needs to be fixed, I think. GoldRomean (talk) 15:44, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Review:

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook eligibility:

Cited:
Interesting:
Other problems: - Sources are for this building specifically, maybe change to something like "... that the San Diego YMCA building served over 125 military personnel?" (add "building")?

QPQ: None required.

Overall: I'm a new DYk reviewer, so requesting fresh review. GoldRomean (talk) 19:54, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Article created on June 16th and nominated on 22nd, so new enough. GoldRomean (talk) 19:56, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hook cited but incorrectly mentioned in article (says 125 instead of 125 million) (I've done some copyediting and fixed this). GoldRomean (talk) 19:56, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@RevelationDirect: Review complete (requesting second review, though). GoldRomean (talk) 20:00, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Impressive 0.0% on Earwig's copyvio detector. It stretches belief a bit to say the YMCA served the equivalent of the entire population of Japan or Mexico, but I'll chalk it up to it having been operating for a long time.
