Project Camelot[edit]

(
)
  • ... that the U.S. Army cancelled Project Camelot on the day Congress began investigating it?
  • ALT1:... that Chileans correctly predicted the use of military-funded social science research in overthrowing their government?
  • Reviewed: Tarrant County Corrections Center
  • Comment: For some reason, DYK check isn't giving me a green light ... but when I run the numbers the new version seems to be five times bigger than previous versions. Suggestions for more images to use in the article would be cool... it's fairly black-and-white-looking at the moment. Oh, and the benefit to using the first hook listed is that the DYK hook can be run on July 8, 2015, the 50-year anniversary of the day in question. (There is even a picture to go with this but it's not terribly appealing, visually, nor earthshattering in its significance.) NB: Open to better ways of wording the first hook. shalom, groupuscule (talk) 07:13, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

5x expanded by Groupuscule (talk). Self nominated at 07:13, 5 February 2015 (UTC).

  • QPQ needed.
5x expansion checked; hook cited in source that requires payment, AGF; I prefer main hook over alt1. Zeete (talk) 19:22, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi Zeete, thanks for taking this one on. Here's a quick and easy source for the hook just in case you wanted to make sure. As far as the quid-pro-quo, I did a review of Tarrant County Correctional Center, which I don't think was double-counted or anything. peace, groupuscule (talk) 22:22, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
  • QPQ done (my oversight, was there all along), hook cited in above quick and easy source (should be added to the article), consider holding for July 8 - 50th anniversary. Zeete (talk) 12:34, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
  • Note to promoter: July 8 is well beyond the six-week maximum hold for special occasion hooks, so this nomination should be promoted without being held. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:29, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
