Club Harlem[edit]
- ... that on Easter morning 1972, Black Mafia members gunned down a rival operative at Atlantic City's Club Harlem in full view of a show audience of some 600 people?

Article is new enough and long enough. It has inline citations. The article has neutral language and there don't appear to be any copyvios. QPQ done. However, the information in the hook needs to be explicitly cited in the article. Other than that, everything looks great! Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 19:10, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review. Do you mean it wasn't clear that they shot the Black Mafia member? Here, I've rewritten the sentences as follows (based on the source):
- Club Harlem was the site of the 1972 Easter morning assassination of the Black Mafia's "Fat" Tyrone Palmer, in full view of a show audience estimated at 600 to 800 people. Four rival operatives entered the club and one shot Palmer in the face after the featured singer, Billy Paul, finished his opening song. Yoninah (talk) 22:40, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
- Yoninah I was just referring to the fact that there isn't a citation in the article after "estimated 600 to 800 people" which appears in the hook. Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 22:50, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
- I've just edited the hook to make it "about 600 people" based on a newspaper story which I added to the article as a ref. We hope (talk) 23:27, 4 August 2016 (UTC)
