Did you know nomination
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Everything looks to be in order, but I would like you to consider a slightly more interesting hook. I would encourage at least some detail as to know Sanda Pankhurst was and what the documentary's themes were. ~

How about "... that 2022 Australian documentary film Clean, centered on the life of
Sandra Pankhurst (a former sex worker, drag queen, and crime scene cleaner), was released after her passing?". Dunno, I would be open to suggestions on how to improve it. I thought it was best to focus on one thing: the fact she died before her own film was released. This person was the epitome of interesting, but I don't want to bring too much into a short hook. Ideas?

This is a very interesting documentary about a very interesting person. Thank you,
MaxnaCarta (
talk·contribs)! I
made some copyedits to the article. Except for the citation requirement, the article meets DYK requirements. The "Synopsis" section is unsourced. If Sandra Pankhurst were still living, citations would be necessary to comply with
WP:BLPSOURCES. But as she has been dead for at least two years,
WP:BLP does not apply.
From
Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Writing about fiction#Sourcing and quotations, "The plot summary for a work, on a page about that work, does not need to be sourced with in-line citations, as it is generally assumed that the work itself is the primary source for the plot summary." However, Clean is a documentary, not a work of fiction, so that guideline is not fully applicable. To err on the safe side, I recommend adding sources to that section so that there is no question that
WP:DYKCITE is met. Sourcing is needed to comply with DYK guidelines since the information about her being "a former sex worker, drag queen, and crime scene cleaner" is not sourced in the article.
WP:DYKCITE says, "The facts of the hook in the article should be cited no later than the end of the sentence in which they appear."
The lead contains information that is not sourced in the body of the article. For example, the release month in "Clean was released in Australia in June 2022" is unsourced. The sentence "It was nominated for two awards at the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards in 2022" is unsourced also. I recommend going through the lead to confirm that everything is sourced (or is mentioned in the body of the article and is sourced there).
Here is an alternative hook that tightens MaxnaCarta's proposed alternative and removes the euphemism:
... ALT1: that the posthumously released documentary Clean centered on the life of
Sandra Pankhurst, a former sex worker, drag queen, and crime scene cleaner?

Fine by me. I've taken the liberty of knocking together a few short sections and merging the Screening section, a) because it isn't really Reception and b) short sections are discouraged per
WP:DYKCOMPLETE. Should be ready to roll.--Launchballer11:03, 23 April 2024 (UTC)reply
