Unfortunately, I'm swamped right now as well, but I might also suggest a small section on planned tributes -- people running in memory of last year's victims. There are quite a few you could mention that have gotten media attention.

Best of luck, and good idea, Sven.

Yes, it should be more robust.

I'd be interested in heightened security issues (but cannot find time now to research and author that).

Any innovative article developments, such as a page where we could watch the number of current registrants, could be lots of fun.

Hello Bostonians (as well as everyone else on the list),

The article on the 2014 Boston Marathon is a tad short for DYK (which has a minimum article length of 1500 characters, around 60 more than what the article has now). The DYK nomination has stalled because of this. If someone would be kind enough to expand the article, and another person be kind enough to put it through a DYK review once it's been expanded, I would then be able to place the hook in a prep area on the appropriate date so that the article appears on the main page during the marathon. (I can't do the expansion or the review if and also move it to prep, which is why I'm asking here).

Thanks in advance,

Sven Manguard
