@4meter4: These two articles are new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the articles are neutral, and I detected no copyright issues. One QPQ has been done but another is needed. Billy Budd would be good to have a plot section, even if only brief, and feels incomplete without it. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:07, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have reviewed many extra articles to clear the backlog in the last few days. Unfortunately the article reviews on the play didn't really delve too deeply into the plot; assuming reader familiarity with the novel, but I'll see what I can come up with. Cwmhiraeth, You can count Template:Did you know nominations/Troy Terry for my second QPQ.4meter4 (talk) 13:02, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Cwmhiraeth I added a short plot synopsis. Unfortunately the references give no clue as to what action takes place when within the play's structure so its pretty basic, but it will have to do. Also if you could take a look at the picture for your review I would appreciate it, because I think it would be a cool pic to feature at DYK. 4meter4 (talk) 14:29, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for adding the plot section and doing some extra reviews. The image is suitably licensed so this is good to go. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:04, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
