• This is a proposed quintuple DYK hook, but "Election" is not ready yet. The link is removed from the hook for now. Hopefully, this article will get created soon. --PFHLai (talk) 06:29, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

• Election has been created, still fleshing out the article. Froggerlaura (talk) 04:59, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

• Thank you, Froggerlaura, for completing this 5x DYK set. I am updating the DYKmake template to reflect your contribution. Cheers! --PFHLai (talk) 00:14, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

• All five articles well-written and well-referenced; dates and size OK; hook format OK and length within limits for a 5x nom (I copy-edited the hook somewhat: "the first to ever win the Derby five times" to "the first ever owner of five Derby winners"); hook facts all cited and verified online.
