Betty Bumpers[edit]

  • ... that, as Arkansas' first lady, Betty Bumpers started a program that took the state from one of the lowest to one of the highest in the U.S. in its rate of childhood immunization?

Could use more sources but work is ongoing, I'll return to this in a few days. have you seen my DYK extension period proposal to 10 instead of 5 days on the talk page? Exactly for situations like this!♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:16, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
FWIW, this is not "exactly" the kind of situation that could require a longer time to nominate. At the time of nomination, the article was ready to nominate. It was long enough (>1800 characters of prose), there were two sources cited in the text, and there were two external links also supporting the article. Four sources is normally more than enough for DYK. The only flaw I saw with the article was that it wasn't complete; there was a lot more content needing to be added. --Orlady (talk) 20:15, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
Date, length, hook and references all check out. Pity there's not a photo. Good to go. Gobōnobo + c 09:41, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
