Matthew Cobb

(
)

Created/expanded by JezGrove (talk). Self-nominated at 21:33, 3 December 2020 (UTC).

  • New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook is catchy, but since these seem to be his words and you're quoting them in the article, the hook should read:
  • ALT0a: ... that Matthew Cobb, winner of the 2021 JBS Haldane Lecture, started his academic career by "getting twins drunk"?
  • No QPQ needed for nominator with less than 5 DYK credits. ALT0a good to go. Yoninah (talk) 00:00, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Update: I was able to listen to the interview and he didn't say it this way, so the ALT0 hook is fine. I edited the article to use his exact words. Replacing icon with a green tick. Yoninah (talk) 00:08, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
