- Reviewed: exempt from QPQ (but did Template:Did you know nominations/Qiu Bojun anyway)
Created by RoySmith (talk). Self-nominated at 03:26, 16 October 2018 (UTC).
Article is recent, long enough, sourced, all sources are online and the content was verified, image is properly licensed, no copyvio detected, neutral tone. I prefer the original hook (I doubt specifying May 16 adds value, I am also Ok with keeping it). QPQ remains to be done.

- This is only my third DYK, so I believe I'm QPQ exempt. -- RoySmith (talk) 02:17, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- I agree that dropping the May 16 bit improves the hook. Adjusted, above. -- RoySmith (talk) 02:19, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
