A fact from BlueforSudan appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 19 April 2023 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Rihanna and Dua Lipa participated in #BlueforSudan to bring attention to the 3 June 2019 Khartoum massacre?
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk pageorWikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
ALT1: interesting, verified, although the source is behind a paywall. Accepted in good faith. Article was created 1 April, and is long enough. It would make sense to link to Rihanna and Dua Lipa in the hook.
ALT2 is not supported by the source - it says that the colour was the poster's "favourite colour" not that it was the last post.

Sources on the whole seem reliable, but I need to say that the refs really aren't well formatted - no author, no tagging for the multiple YT videos used as sources. Also a fair few sentences were directly lifted from the university website.
This is the big one - this article (understandably as you seem to quite connected to Sudan) has major POV issues, and large parts of it honestly need to be rewritten. See examples below.
while obviously this is a terrible incident, the article has a REALLY strong pro-protest tone and POV, which is why it can't be a GA
some of the high-profile individuals who have been instrumental in bringing attention to the crisis
bogus accounts exploited the #BlueForSudan movement by making fake claims about sending aid to Sudan in exchange for clicks
However, the protesters persisted, and the sit-in at the military headquarters in Khartoum continued to grow in size and significance, eventually becoming the heart of the pro-democracy movement in Sudan. The Sudanese government responded to the protests with more violence and repression
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
couldn't find any wars, reverts - seems stable
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
Images are OK, the shade of blue probably needs a source tho
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
quickfail due to the multiple issues, (especially the POV) which fail WP:GAC
