I've said this before: If I don't write these, no-one else does. So I've... really rushed this week's article, and it probably shows. If anyone cares to help for next issue... please?

Eighteen featured articles were promoted this period.

William Anderson (RAAF officer), nominated by Ian Rose

A founding member of the R-A-A-F

He was well-liked; may have lacked depth.

Our Lady of Perpetual Exemption, nominated by MyCatIsAChonk

John Oliver made this church to satirise the way

Anyone, without scrutiny, can have a tax-exempt payday.

Ormond Beatty, nominated by PCN02WPS

Centre College, in Kentucky,

To get Beatty as pres. was surely very lucky.

Sun in fiction, nominated by TompaDompa

It used to be inhabited; nowadays, it's not

But if there is an inhabitant, I'll bet you they're hot!

1981–82 Gillingham F.C. season, nominated by ChrisTheDude

The team's winning matches mark the 23 enigma,

But losing first place has to hold such a stigma.—Guest-written by Vaticidalprophet

Lever House, nominated by Epicgenius

All New Yorkers might have such hope

As to design a building for a seller of soap.

Polar bear, nominated by LittleJerry

Pictured: The subject of the article in a snowstorm:

Interstate 40 in Tennessee, nominated by Bneu2013

The Great Smoky Mountains and music combine

In this highway across a state sublime.

Blood on the Floor (Turnage), nominated by Schminnte

Someone should really clean that up. But the music's good, at least.

KCPQ, nominated by Sammi Brie

Young man, yeah I'm talking to you,

I say, young man, you know what you should do

You should go man, down to Washington state

Where there's a! Chan! Nel! we relate:

It's fun to watch TV on K-C-P-Q

It's fun to watch TV on K-C-P-Q

Educational TV, and commercial stuff too,

There's a whole lot of stuff to view!

2022 Hong Kong Masters, nominated by Lee Vilenski

An event that entered the history book-er,

When it became the most attended event in snooker.

Edward Oxford, nominated by SchroCat

His assassination of Queen Victoria was a failure,

But he had a respectable life after being banished to Australia.

This poem only works if you pronounce "failure" in an Australian accent.

Ohmdenosaurus, nominated by Jens Lallensack

The sources are in German, so it makes us all tinglish

To announce the first comprehensive account in English.

John D. Whitney, nominated by Ergo Sum

A Jesuit of great renown,

President of U. Georgetown.

"Dark Archives", nominated by Vaticidalprophet

It's about this book binding material, but it's not bound in

And that's a good thing: Where do you source human skin?

Anyone want to make a donation for The Signpost's copy?

Terry Griffiths, nominated by BennyOnTheLoose

The thing that Griffiths really crave is

To at last out-snooker old Steve Davis.

Clown (Mariah Carey song), nominated by Heartfox

Mariah Carey takes up the crown

With a diss track 'gainst Eminem (the "Clown").

Assassination of John F. Kennedy, nominated by Walloon

...Not making fun of this one.
