• @Mgreason: This article has a few citation needed tags and a section entirely without citations. That will need to be fixed before the article runs on DYK. Also, FWIW, neither of these hooks are very interesting. Maybe there's a hook focusing on the difference between him and his no-good, gambling predecessor?

@Mgreason: Please address the above.--Launchballer 13:14, 8 March 2025 (UTC)

@Launchballer: TBH, there really wasn't much interesting about the guy, and although more honest, was petty and vindictive. Go ahead and pull the nomination. Thanks for your input. Mgrē@sŏn (Talk) 22:15, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
