Created by 2603:7000:2101:AA00:CCC9:7E7B:26A9:1834 (talk). Nominated by Launchballer (talk) at 19:51, 24 August 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Lindsey Halligan; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • The alt0 hook is kind of boring IMO (lawyer practices insurance and criminal law) and hides the key fact that makes her interesting. I'd suggest the following alt:
    • alt1 ... that attorney Lindsey Halligan handled residential and commercial insurance claims before joining Donald Trump's criminal defense team? Cbl62 (talk) 02:21, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
Cb162 - I wrote the original hook. I'm fine with either. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:41E3:B4CF:4CBB:9BA2 (talk) 07:14, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
  • Full review needed now that an ALT hook has been suggested. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:07, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: The Daily Beast should be used with caution. Given that this is an BLP, and the sentences about the roof cases are sourced only to The Daily Beast, I think you should look for further sources that cover that information or consider removing it. Fox News is not reliable on politics, but links to a video used as the source of the quote about the jugular (which it does verify) so I'm fine with it. I'm not sure why that sentence about the jugular is also sourced to the Newsweek article, as I can't find the quote there? If you retain the sentences about the roof case, you should rephrase, as it lights up on Earwig as a bit too similar. Alt1 is definitely an improvement on the earlier ones. There's enough issues for me to mark this maybe, but nothing that's difficult to fix. DrThneed (talk) 23:24, 23 September 2023 (UTC)

@Launchballer: This review is waiting on a response, but maybe you missed it? DrThneed (talk) 04:39, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
Not my nom. I nominated on behalf of an IP.--Launchballer 06:59, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
  • Note to nominator User:2603:7000:2101:AA00:CCC9:7E7B:26A9:1834: you should be monitoring your nominations since there's no effective way to ping an IP during a review since numbers are reassigned so frequently. Please respond to the review right away if you wish to pursue your nomination; otherwise, it's likely to be closed as abandoned. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:45, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
  • The IP editor has not returned and there has been no significant movement in the article in about a month, so unless another editor is willing to adopt this nomination it's probably time to close this as abandoned. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 03:05, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
