... that under the management of Megan Coyne, New Jersey's Twitter account grew into the largest of any U.S. state while posting dank memes? Source: <https://www.rutgers.edu/news/rutgers-grad-helps-put-jersey-njgov-twitter-account> <https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/19/nyregion/new-jersey-twitter-njgov.html>
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Supply-side progressivism
- Comment: I'm not able to find any free photographs of Coyne, so I unfortunately cannot include an image in this nomination. I suspect that Theleekycauldron may have some ideas for hooks, so I'd like to hear what they have to say before this gets added to a prep.

Created by Red-tailed hawk (talk) and Theleekycauldron (talk). Nominated by Red-tailed hawk (talk) at 04:29, 31 August 2022 (UTC).[reply]

Soooo... I did already make my own DYK nom earlier this morning, over at Template:Did you know nominations/New Jersey on Twitter (the article was since renamed). What we'll do is treat this as the nomination for Megan Coyne, and should the two be promoted as a double hook, we'll close both at once. If not, I have separate hooks that are up and ready to go, and I suggest that Red-tailed hawk prepare some as well :) with that said, here are my double hooks (labelled "d" for convenience): theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 04:55, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- ALT d1: ... that when asked who let New Jersey have a twitter account, its manager simply replied, "your mom"?
- ALT d2: ... that according to Megan Coyne, who ran New Jersey's Twitter account, "you can call us an armpit. Armpits are great!"?
- ALT d3: ... that New Jersey's Twitter account took an "edgier" turn when Megan Coyne joined its management staff?
oh, and why not, some individual hooks:
- ALT1: ... that Megan Coyne might have caused the White House to go "goblin mode" in a Twitter thread?

@Red-tailed hawk and Theleekycauldron: I think a double hook nomination works super well here and both articles are GTG as far as I can tell. Each user has provided a QPQ for their separate articles, Earwig looks good, and each article is new and long enough. Sourcing looks good too. I personally like ALT0, ALTd1, and ALTd3 the best but any hook with both links is good with me. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 16:57, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of material[edit]

I saw this edit, which removed longstanding material from the article that was well-sourced, so I restored it. It was removed again, this time without explanation, so it was restored again. I'm opening this discussion here so that we can better talk about this than using (or not using) edit summaries, as the sources seem to actually support the claims made. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 01:54, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
