... that Ross Youngs (pictured) is the member of the National Baseball Hall of Fame who died at the youngest age?

Comment: Technically, this is a 5x expansion in 6 days. I had this article on my list of articles to expand, but I was on a work trip last week and didn't see that Dewelar (talk · contribs) had started the expansion on June 12. Given that I didn't see it until this morning, and I don't think I can get it all the way 5x'd from after Dewelar's expansion, I ask for a WP:IAR to cut me slack. It's only one day, no big deal, right?

Waiting for QPQ. Will finish review when notified that has been completed. --LauraHale (talk)

That backlog must be getting unlogged, because reviews seem to be happening earlier and earlier. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:35, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

I randomly review when I see something. Also, obvious problems like no QPQ being done make it easy to flag and a few people say they will do QPQ and then two weeks later, the nomination is sitting there without a QPQ. Not a fan of people saying "I'll get to it soon." because it can't passed, per rules, until the QPQ is done. Considering the IAR request attached to it, it makes it even more annoying. That whinging out of the way...--LauraHale (talk) 00:48, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

WP:IAR for new enough and long enough at time of nomination. Article was late but we're not talking an insubstantial expansion.
Article is fully supported by sources. QPQ was finally completed. Article is neutral enough. Hook is properly formatted. Image is tagged as public domain so good enough for the main page. No plagiarism concerns. Hooked text is supported by the article. I think I understand the meaning of it hooked text, in that he died at the youngest age of anyone included in the baseball hall of fame. This fact is supported by the text. The text is supported by a citation that lists just this. --LauraHale (talk) 00:48, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Good to go! :) --LauraHale (talk) 00:48, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

I usually don't do my QPQ for a day or two, but it seems that hooks are getting reviewed in less time than it used to take, so I need to get on my reviewing faster. Thanks for the review! – Muboshgu (talk) 04:06, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
