@Apcbg: While you certainly have put in a lot of work on this article, it presently does not meet the DYK eligibility criteria. In the future, the easiest way for this to appear at DYK would be for it to be assessed as a Good Article and nominated for DYK at that time. Chris857 (talk) 23:55, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

I see. Apcbg (talk) 07:21, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Future: you can just check the article against the GA requirements, fix what may be missing, and nominate. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:20, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

I'd rather leave that to others :-) Apcbg (talk) 10:22, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
