• Reviewed: Operation Title

• Comment: I have not been able to find an image of Dr. Arthur Arndt. There are images of his son Erich and his wife Ellen, both of whom are deceased. Would that help? Will look for an article to review and update the nomination.

• The review of Operation Title is done.–CaroleHenson (talk) 15:28, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

• Hi CaroleHenson (talk), review follows: article crated 15 April and is of good length; sources used look to be reliable; sources are mostly offline so I will have to AGF to an extent but found no issues with overly close paraphrasing from a spotcheck on the online ones, quotations from sources are properly attributed; hook fact is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; I trimmed "Dr." from the hook as it didn't seem to be in line with MOS:DOC: "Academic and professional titles (such as "Dr." or "Professor"), including honorary ones, should be used in a Wikipedia article only when the subject is widely known by a pseudonym or stage name containing such a title", it is also used four times in the article which I didn't change in case it led to confusion between him and other members of his family but you could perhaps review these also; There is a photograph at NY City Woman, not sure of copyright status but gives you something to add to the article as fair use at the least - Dumelow (talk) 08:23, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
  • Hi Dumelow, Thanks for the review!
    • I forgot about that image. He looks a little scarey or distrubed. Maybe it's me. I have added it. Unfortunately, Wikipedia:Did you know/Image - in the top of the article, J1, states that non-free fair use images cannot be used in DYK.
    • Yep, re: "Dr." Arndt. It makes it a bit easier to be clear about whose being talked about, but when I read through the four usages, I think that there's enough context to remove "Dr." - which I did.–CaroleHenson (talk) 15:57, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
