SN 2014J[edit]
- ... that the newly discovered supernova SN 2014J (pictured) was found by accident during an undergraduate teaching lesson at University of London Observatory?
- Comment: Self-nomination. It's also one of the closest SNe for decades, but sources differ on the exact record so I've avoided using it in the hook.

- Comment The article is nominated in ITN candidates, but it is not posted as of now. --Gfosankar (talk) 14:23, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
- Can the {{expand section}} tag be taken care of before the article appears on MainPage, please? Thanks. --PFHLai (talk) 15:47, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
- Probably not... It's really waiting for reliable sources to be published. Very little is yet known about the physical properties of the supernova, and almost all that I've seen was in non-reliable sources. I could just remove the tag on the basis that the article is complete as far as present scientific knowledge goes, but it will change over the next few weeks / months as more measurements are made. Or is there a more appropriate tag? Modest Genius talk 11:37, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
This article was just posted on ITN. That makes it ineligible for DYK, so I withdraw this nomination. Modest Genius talk 15:26, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
