Comment: I don't normally do "first" hooks, but that's the notability claim for this station and it got them written up in quite a few national media outlets.

Article is new. (Although DYK check claims it is not new. There must be a problem with that tool.) It is long enough and neutral. Earwig's Copyvio Detector reports no text similarities. It is cited with inlne references. The hook is well-formatted and interesting. Its length is within limit. Its fact is cited inline. QPQ was done. Good to go. CeeGee 12:07, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@CeeGee: Probably because 11 days have passed since the article's creation, though I nominated it in time. Raymie (t • c) 15:56, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I know this. I was wondering that the tool "DYK check" checked the nomination date and not the review date in the past. The current version causes confusion. That's my claim to the author of the tool. No problem at all for your nomination. CeeGee 09:04, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
