  • When modifying a hook in a queue or prep area (other than minor formatting fixes), please notify the nominator by including a link of the form [[User:JoeEditor]] in your edit summary. (Ping templates like {{u|JoeEditor}} don't work in edit summaries.)

    Administrators: Please ensure that there is always at least one queue filled at all times, to prevent overdue updates to the Main Page.

    This page gives an overview of all DYK hooks currently scheduled for promotion to the Main Page. By showing the content of all queues and prep areas in one place, the overview helps administrators see how full the queues are, and also makes it easier for users to check that their hook has been promoted or to find hooks for copy-editing. Hooks removed from queues or prep areas for unresolved issues should have their nominations reopened and retranscluded at the nomination page.

    You may need to purge this page to get it to display the latest edits.

    The next update will be produced from Queue 7. After performing a manual update, please update the pointer to the next queue.

    Note: See WP:DYKROTATE for when we change between one and two sets per day.

    Instructions on how to promote a hook

    At-a-glance instructions on how to promote an approved hook to a prep area

    Check list for nomination review completeness
    1. Select a hook from the approved nominations page that has one of these ticks at the bottom post: .
    2. Check to make sure basic review requirements were completed.
      • Any outstanding issue following needs to be addressed before promoting.
    3. Check the article history for any substantive changes since it was nominated or reviewed.
    4. Images for the lead slot must be freely licensed. Fair-use images are not permitted. Images loaded on Commons that appear on the Main Page are automatically protected by KrinkleBot.
    5. Hook must be stated in both the article and source (which must be cited at the end of the article sentence where stated).
    6. Hook should make sense grammatically.
    7. Try to vary subject matters within each prep area.
    8. Try to select a funny, quirky or otherwise upbeat hook for the last or bottom hook in the set.
    Steps to add a hook to prep
    • In one tab, open the nomination page of the hook you want to promote.
    • In a second tab, open the prep set you intend to add the hook to.

    Wanna skip all this fuss? Install WP:PSHAW instead! Does most of the heavy lifting for ya :)

    1. For hooks held for specific dates, refer to "Local update times" section on DYK Queue.
      • Completed Prep area number sets will be promoted by an administrator to corresponding Queue number.
    2. Copy and paste the hook into a chosen slot.
      • Make sure there's a space between ... and that, and a ? at the end.
      • Check that there's a bold link to the article.
    3. If it's the lead (first) hook, paste the image where indicated at the top of the template.
    4. Copy and paste ALL the credit information (the {{DYKmake}} and {{DYKnom}} templates) at the bottom
    5. Check your work in the prep's Preview mode.
      • At the bottom under "Credits", to the right of each article should have the link "View nom subpage" ; if not, a subpage parameter will need to be added to the DYKmake.
    6. Save the Prep page.
    Closing the DYK nomination page
    1. At the upper left
      • Change {{DYKsubpageto{{subst:DYKsubpage
      • Change |passed=to|passed=yes
    2. At the bottom
      • Just above the line containing

        }}<!--Please do not write below this line or remove this line. Place comments above this line.-->

        insert a new, separate line containing one of the following:
        To [[T:DYK/P1|Prep 1]]
        To [[T:DYK/P2|Prep 2]]
        To [[T:DYK/P3|Prep 3]]
        To [[T:DYK/P4|Prep 4]]
        To [[T:DYK/P5|Prep 5]]
        To [[T:DYK/P6|Prep 6]]
        To [[T:DYK/P7|Prep 7]]
      • Also paste the same thing into the edit summary.
    3. Check in Preview mode. Make sure everything is against a pale blue background (nothing outside) and there are no stray characters, like }}, at the top or bottom.
    4. Save.

    For more information, please see T:TDYK#How to promote an accepted hook.
