    Instructions for nominators

    This page is for those nominations that have already been approved and are waiting to be promoted. If yours has been approved but has not yet been run on the main page, it should either be on this page or will soon be moved here, or already promoted to a Prep area or Queue ahead of an appearance on the main page.

    If you wish to create a new nomination, please go to the Template talk:Did you know page; there are instructions there in a section similar to this one on how to nominate an article for DYK.

    Frequently asked questions

    Backlogged?

    This page is often backlogged. As long as your submission is still on the page, it will stay there until someone promotes it to a preparation area. To alleviate this problem, if the approved page has more than 120 approved hooks, then sets will change twice per day (every 12 hours) instead of once per day (every 24 hours). When the backlog falls below 60 approved nominations set frequency returns to once a day.

    Where is my hook?

    If you can't find the nomination you submitted to the nominations page, and it also isn't on this page, in most cases it means your article has been approved and is either in one of the prep areas, has been promoted from prep to a queue, or is on the main page.

    If the nominated hook is in none of those places, then the nomination has probably been rejected. Such a rejection usually only occurs if it was at least a couple of weeks old and had unresolved issues for which any discussion had gone stale. If you think your nomination was unfairly rejected, you can query this on the DYK discussion page, but as a general rule such nominations will only be restored in exceptional circumstances.

    Overall: Everything looks good to me! A very interesting list. Preference is for either toe hook. Noting that DYK Check shows less than 1500 characters, but the text in the list proper is well over the limit  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 20:45, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    In its current form, we'd have to IAR this as the prose size is 18 bytes short of the 1500 bytes limit. But I agree that there is so much (valuable) prose in the table that this should be ok. I shall note that the toe image is not in focus and thus recommend against using it. Schwede66 06:29, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Gobonobo, if the toe image can't be used, do you have a preference between toe hook (without image), arm hook (with image), or something else? Rjjiii (talk) 04:16, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    toe used for cocktails
    toe used for cocktails
    The toe is fabulous (both unusual and intriguing) and I really think it is the best option if we're going with an image. It renders quite well at 140x140 pixels and is only out of focus if you click through to the enlarged image. However, we could use a different crop (example pictured) if you wanted something sharper. gobonobo + c 04:48, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Opinions on that version, Schwede66? Not about drinking it, but for DKY purposes, Rjjiii (talk) 05:03, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @AirshipJungleman29 and Rjjiii: There really are a lot of options here. I focused on the most interesting images of body parts, and didn't spend a lot of time considering using the portraits of the individuals. If the toe is too gross for people, maybe a hook about the Heart of Louis XIV being both eaten and made into paint, which could work without an image as well. I'm not sure how to word it though. There are a ton of options and I'm totally open to suggestions. gobonobo + c 05:10, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    It’s up to the promoter to prep to decide on images. Schwede66 08:27, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Kevmin § 00:13, 31 May 2024 (UTC).[reply]

    General: Article is new enough and long enough
    Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
    Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
    QPQ: Done.

    Overall: My first time reviewing a dual-article nomination, and I appreciate the effort which must have gone into it!

    Both articles moved to mainspace yesterday. QPQ is done. No plagiarism detected via Earwig. For both articles, length, referencing and image licensing are all good. For the insect, I think that the first paragraph of "Description" and of "Paleoenvironment" are both a bit long and ought to be split up a bit, and that "Paleoenvironment" should have at least one image - even the location map over at Klondike Mountain Formation would be really helpful. For the plant, you really should move the distribution images a couple of paragraphs down to avoid MOS:SANDWICH, and the last sentence of the lead is missing a period. Still, I would not hold up the nomination for those reasons alone.

    To me, it is the hook which has multiple significant issues. It may not be grammatically correct (shouldn't it be named after the same place, not named from the same place?), it is really confusing and vague, as you have no way to tell what place is actually being referred to without clicking on both links, and I feel that a lot of readers would just say "So what?" when they see it as currently written. Suggested wording: Alt1 "...that extinct plants and damselflies from the Eocene were discovered and named after RepublicinWashington?"

    I also think that both articles should have a sentence which makes this connection between the two more explicit than the mere hatnote at the top. Lastly, you should at least add DOI and ISBN links to your DYK citations. Right now, there is no way to tell which citation refers to which fossil without going through the articles' references, and we should not have to do that. InformationToKnowledge (talk) 13:05, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    InformationToKnowledge The hook as written is a play on the hemihomonym use of the genus name Republica for both a plant and an animal, but I like alt1 as well. I've added the dois for each source and a map to Republica weatbrooki, plus added splits in the Description and Paleoenvironment sections. A sentence calling out the hemihomonymy has been added to each article under classification. The image/map placement for Republics (plant) is more problematic though. I edit on a wide screen desktop monitor, and my view of the article has the maps already almost all the way down to the start of References. Ideally I was wanting a single map, but I wasn't able to find one I could make work for the West coast sites plus Alaska.--Kevmin § 18:37, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Taking conciseness into account and a matching the details of the articles:

    Alt2 "...that fossil plants (pictured) and damselflies from the Ypresian were named after Republic in Washington state?"

    Kevmin OK, that addresses all my concerns. Thanks for the prompt response! InformationToKnowledge (talk) 17:24, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Kevmin and InformationToKnowledge: Whereas the original hook is one of the most eye-catching I have seen in a while, ALT2 is rather averagely dull. Can we not try to get the original to working order? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:25, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The information for Alt0 is present in both articles, based on the original descriptions of each.--Kevmin § 16:46, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Hopefully the reviewer InformationToKnowledge feels the same. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:54, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    We may be waiting a while for them, as they haven't edited since the 14th, and the frequency of edits was tapering off before that.--Kevmin § 18:15, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Their names don't appear in the act's name in the same way that, say, Ashleigh appears in Ashleigh and Pudsey.--Launchballer 00:46, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't think "credited" can be used that way. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 09:56, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I can't see that source. Googling 'credit define' gives one definition of 'publicly acknowledge a contributor's role in the production of (something published or broadcast)' - is there not a similar definition in the OED source? And if not, how would you convey this information? (HuffPost, the piece used in the article, says "the only solo woman to ever triumph on BGT without the aid of a dog sidekick", but I would argue that "Ashleigh and Pudsey" is quite clearly a double act.)--Launchballer 10:10, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @Narutolovehinata5, Crisco 1492, and Hey man im josh:, I thought the hook was supposed to be concise and straight to the point. "If readers do not know who Tyla or Tems are, the hook doesn't really seem to make much sense or at least catch attention." So how do we go about this, are we supposed to introduce them on DYK? I'm so confused. Any suggestions on how the hook can be improved? dxneo (talk) 08:09, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • I agree with Dxneo. Even without following recent music, I was able to tell that it was "that musician delayed album to allow collaboration with musician." We could contextualize it by including "South African singer" for Tyla and "Nigerian singer" for Tems, but that introduces repetition and doesn't seem to qualify Tyla sufficiently given her Grammy win and charting.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 18:15, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Contextualizing is probably a good idea and what I originally had in mind as the solution. Also while the Grammy winning thing is a good thing, not everyone may be following the Grammys or be as well-versed in entertainment. Not all Grammy winners are household names. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:27, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Narutolovehinata5, yes you are right. However, these are two well established artists. Tyla peaked in top 10 in over 25 countries and was also certified higher than Gold in over 10 countries. On the other hand, Tems pretty much did the same thing and even more since she has been in the game longer than Tyla. We may say『South African singer Tyla…』as there are other Tylas, but there's only one Tems. Thoughts? dxneo (talk) 13:33, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    ALT1: ... that South African singer Tyla delayed her debut album's submission date in order to collaborate with Tems?

    If the Grammy Award wasn't enough to validate her notability, I hope the BETs got the job done. I mean, how long are we gonna discuss this DYK. dxneo (talk) 07:39, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The issue was never notability, it was interest and understandability. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 08:24, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Narutolovehinata5, is the issue now addressed or…? dxneo (talk) 09:52, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I suppose I can live with ALT1, although my preference would still be to include Nigerian singer somewhere in the hook. That would be optional though given the focus is on Tyla and adding that would make the hook far more clunky. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:11, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Just to be on the safe side it might be better for a different editor to make the final decision, just for objectivity's sake. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 15:06, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    ALT1: ... that the entire Green Bay Packers team was chosen to play in the 1940 NFL All-Star Game?
    @Gonzo fan2007: What do you think of this? It's still "hooky" while hewing a little closer to fact, in my opinion. But despite my joke earlier, I'm not deliberately trying to be difficult and am open to other suggestions. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 23:27, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    DrOrinScrivello, that actually was going to be my original hook, but then I questioned whether "played" was factually correct. There aren't a lot of great sources for an 84 year old game, and I can't be certain that every player actually "played" (there were at least 2 injuries for Packers players noted before the game). "Select" is kind of the word used by the NFL for being chosen to the Pro Bowl and is consistent with List of Green Bay Packers Pro Bowl selections. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 23:33, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    All that to say I don't really mind either ALT if you think ALT1 is fine. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 23:36, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree that "select" is what you usually expect to see in most Pro Bowl situations, but it seems to me that on this particular occasion the players themselves weren't "selected" per se. Maybe a way to get around the "play" issue would be to say,
    ALT1b: ... that the entire Green Bay Packers team was chosen to compete in the 1940 NFL All-Star Game?
    I think this is mostly hair splitting, though, and would not argue if the promoter choses any of the three options. Assuming my suggestions didn't alter the original enough for this to be considered approving my own hook (in which case I'm fine with another reviewer being requested), I think this is good to go.

I've done a general search myself as to the subject of the bio in English sources. There were some deletions made to the article of the word Nazi here; restoring the word would help make this properly neutral in accuracy, and I would be happy then to pass this final item of the qpq. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:FD8F:5C17:CABB:9E61 (talk) 20:25, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
