... that Australian talk show host Paul B. Kidd is a prolific true crime writer who has written 37 books? Source: talk show host, publication count

Reviewed: Invisible Cities (album)
Comment: I'm an idiot and forgot to add this to DYKN for two days, sorry. Vaticidalprophet (talk) 00:45, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Created by Vaticidalprophet (talk). Self-nominated at 05:33, 6 March 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Article is new, long enough (~2400 characters), well-sourced and neutrally written. No copyvio detected by Earwig's tool. The hook is interesting and supported by the given sources, and QPQ is done. Only minor nitpicky issue @Vaticidalprophet: I think that for DYK purposes, the WorldCat ref should be duplicated in the preceding sentence (ending with "...37 published works."), per WP:DYKRULES #3b. It can be removed after the article's turn on the Main Page. DanCherek (talk) 21:58, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review, @DanCherek! Ref duplicated. Vaticidalprophet (talk) 06:50, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good! DanCherek (talk) 12:17, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
