@HickoryOughtShirt?4: Article is well cited and I will be assuming that there should be no copyvio issues. I find ALT0 interesting. I find ALT1 just as interesting as ALT0, however the term "able bodies" can be considered derogatory. See this article, "Terms to Avoid When Writing About Disability". Is there a better term that can be used both in the hook and the article? Let me know and please notify me with a ping. ALT2 is just a matter-of-fact, so it's not interesting. QPQ is also missing.

I suggest maybe using ~~"ALT1a:... that Jayne Spain (pictured) hired one handicapped individual for every ten individuals without a disability?"~~ or "ALT1b:... that Jayne Spain (pictured) hired one handicapped individual for every ~~ten~~ nine non-disabled individuals?" per this style guide.

Nice4What, thank you for the quick review. I apologize about the language, wasn't thinking. I agree your proposed hook is much better. I am working on my QPQ. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 17:23, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nice4What, QPQ completed. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 01:55, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@HickoryOughtShirt?4: ~~Quickly passed and good to go.~~ You still need to replace the derogatory term from the article. The source also states that she hired one in ten, not a ratio of one to ten. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ♥) 01:59, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Changed to non-disabled individuals. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nice4What, Oops, must've misread that. Fixed. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:03, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nice4What, is what I fixed ok? HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:10, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@HickoryOughtShirt?4: Since you changed the phrasing in the article, you may need to make it more clear in a DYK hook to match. Other than that, should be good to go. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ♥) 02:11, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe "ALT1c:... that Jayne Spain (pictured) hired a ratio of one physically handicapped individual in every ten employees?" per the newspaper sourced. Thoughts? Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ♥) 02:15, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's good. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:16, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
