DYK for Glyn Johns article[edit]
Hello, I just completed a huge expansion for the Glyn Johns article, and had it reviewed and it made GA. So, I nominated the article for DYK. However, before I was able to properly address the reviewer's concerns, I noticed that it disappeared off of the nomination page, so I re-nominated it (with the same template Template:Did you know nominations/Glyn Johns)--then my re-nomination got reverted. If they put it into the queue schedule, nobody let me know. I they withdrew it, then I was not given a fair chance to correct it. I just want this nomination to have a fair chance. I was wondering if someone could help me. GloryRoad66 (talk) 01:34, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
- GloryRoad66, the article is on the 'Approved' page (WP:DYKNA, rather than DYKN) and can be found there. It's automatically moved there when it gets a tick symbol, which the reviewer added in the original review. The reviewer's comments are a little odd combined with an approval -- it seems to me that they were approving it but wanted to see if you could come up with more hooks? (Speaking personally, I'm very strict on hook interestingness but think this one was fine.) There's also the sourcing comment, which...without reviewing the article myself and taking your statement at face value, is usually (in what I've seen) interpreted the way you interpret it. But as it stands, that symbol means they approved the article as "good enough for DYK" and that further comments past that are optional considerations rather than necessary.

- Here from my talk, GloryRoad66 :) Vaticidalprophet is correct that your hook has been moved into the 'Approved' column. In the future, it's helpful to make nominations with Wikipedia:Did you know/Create new nomination, since I see you were struggling with formatting.

- Thanks. I didn't know that it had been approved. GloryRoad66 (talk) 01:49, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
- On the page Template talk:Did you know/Approved, one down in the sidebar from the nominations page, the approved hooks that haven't been put in queues yet are listed. This one hasn't yet been promoted, but it should pop up on your watchlist with a notification when it is. The promotion message doesn't list what prep it's been placed in (Leek, is there any appetite to make PSHAW do that if it's not too hard? I remember that during the later manual period it was a thing), but you can check those too at Template:Did you know/Queue, listed in the same sidebar. Vaticidalprophet 01:52, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
- @Vaticidalprophet: I mean, it links to the target prep in the edit summary, no? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 01:53, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
