David Bosco

• ... that David Bosco is an American journalist, author and academic?

Created/expanded by Nghafouri (talk). Nominated by B14709 (talk) at 00:26, 21 December 2013 (UTC).

• Length is OK. No policy violations. However, the hook is incredibly boring. Also, the article was created on the 17th, not the 20th. --Hirolovesswords (talk) 05:29, 21 December 2013 (UTC) Changed template from {{DYKno}} as there's still a chance of a successful nomination.

Article moved from Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/David Bosco on December 21, 2013, and Dec 21 is the date that counts. DYK practice is to suggest alt hooks whether or not the original is interesting. — Maile (talk) 17:31, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

• ALT 1 ... that David Bosco served as deputy director of a joint United Nations-NATO project on refugee repatriation in Sarajevo? --Hirolovesswords (talk) 22:59, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

• This article is new enough and long enough. Going with ALT1 as it is more interesting than the original hook and the hook fact is sourced. No issue with close paraphrasing identified. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:51, 7 January 2014 (UTC)
