General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: No - yes
    • Cited in the same paragraph. However, it needs to be repeated at the end of the sentence as well. WP:DYK#Cited hook says the cite must appearing no later than the end of the sentence(s) offering that fact. Citations at the end of the paragraph are not sufficient.
  • Interesting: Yes

QPQ: No - yes

  • (You have 6 DYK nominations already, so a QPQ is needed)

6? I have 52 DYKs. Mitch32(Fame is a four letter word.) 04:30, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

@Mitchazenia: The DYK tool only counts 6, though older DYK nominations are not counted. In any case, because you have more than 5 DYKs, a QPQ needs to be done before this can be approved. epicgenius (talk) 15:03, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
Already did it. Still think this is stupid. Mitch32(Fame is a four letter word.) 17:48, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
I assume that your QPQ is Template:Did you know nominations/Passage of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Since you have done that, and added the citation, looks like this is good to go. epicgenius (talk) 17:51, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Mitchazenia, the quid pro quo review needs to be a complete review of both article and hook(s): newness, size, neutral, adequately sourced, and free from close paraphrasing/copyvio. For example, the "contrary to public opinion" hook claim is unsourced, so the hook cannot pass unless it is. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:39, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Done, but goes without saying I won't be nominating a DYK for a while. QPQ is a bit silly. Mitch32(Fame is a four letter word.) 06:11, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Restoring tick by epicgenius; while the QPQ review wasn't quite complete, it was fairly close, and the nomination has since been approved by another reviewer. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:40, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
  • Removing "wild" from the hook as POV language. Yoninah (talk) 22:15, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
