• ... that stand-up comedian Dustin Nickerson says his children have veto power over any jokes he might tell about them?

• Source: 'Parenting is the focus of his podcast and a common theme in his comedy. But he’s not springing those jokes on his wife and kids. “Everyone in the family has presidential veto power,” Nickerson said. “What I’m doing is not more important than the relationships in your life. If you don’t want me to say it, I won’t.' https://www.deseret.com/entertainment/2023/12/16/23762079/comedian-dustin-nickerson-on-clean-mean-comedy/

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Nice article! The big quotation at the end should be shortened and attributed or cut altogether. IMO this hook runs a bit close to WP:DYKFICTION since it's discussing Nickerson's own interpretation of his standup routine, but some attribution like "Nickerson says he offers his children veto..." would probably work, or an alternative fact. TY! Spaghettifier talk 22:51, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

Thanks Spaghettifier! I updated the hook and removed the quote from the article. Dclemens1971 (talk) 01:41, 15 June 2025 (UTC)
