User:JuniperChill/DYK work
This page is about my work at DYK. This will also help should I require a QPQ for a further nomination. I may review hooks because I have some interest in it after doing my first nomination. I was introduced to DYK because of theleekycauldron and her RfA. I personally never knew this existed until reading her RfA so thank you for getting me into DYK.
Reviews
This section will show what I reviewed and also because if I need to use a QPQ for a nomination, this will make it help. If used, they will be crossed out.
a - approved | r - rejected
Template:Did you know nominations/Azahriah[1] - was put on hold until the nom has fixed the issues. That never happened and I rejected the hook after giving it two weeks. (r)- Template:Did you know nominations/Eve (Stellar Blade) - a
- Template:Did you know nominations/Music Sounds Better with You - a
- Template:Did you know nominations/Interstate 85 in North Carolina - a, but later pulled
- Template:Did you know nominations/Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail - a
- Template:Did you know nominations/Mindustry - a
- Template:Did you know nominations/Accessibility of transport in London - a (was reviewed by someone else until I stepped in to provide an alternative hook)
- Template:Did you know nominations/Schlag den Henssler - a
If there are any that I haven't listed, there is more to find with the what links here feature or my contributions to template space (since DYK stuff uses template space for some reason) although it will also include my nominations and promotions and edits to non-DYK templates.
Nominations
- I currently have two DYK (which stands for did you know) nominations. The first one is cozy game (DYK nomination template) in which Andrzejbanas made that. I just nominated it within the 7 day period and it was a success! The dates in brackets are when the hook was on the main page.
- "that Animal Crossing: New Horizons sparked a boom in the popularity of cozy games?" (22 April 2024)
- My other DYK is the one for Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly (DYK nomination template). That was my first successful article and my first successful DYK of an article that I made. Can't believe it was exactly a month apart between my first two DYKs!
- "that Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly was released after its main creator of Coffee Talk died in March 2022?" (22 May 2024)
- Although this one went onto the main page, it was removed after 10 hours at WP:ERRORS for various reasons. I didn't think the hook was wrong but that isn't the only reason why it was removed from the main page.
- "that the upgrading of the A9 in Scotland between Perth and Inverness is far from being complete despite its 2025 deadline?" (17 July 2024)
Promotions
I may promote a DYK hook, but not regularly (no more than a few per month) until I gained some experience and also because there is a backlog of over 200 nominations.
DYK preparation
This section is used to prepare my DYK hooks if they reach good article (GA) or gets moved to mainspace respectively. These articles are nominated for GA.
To good article
- Alt0 - that East Midlands Railway operated the last InterCity 125 train from London in May 2021?
- Alt0a - that the last HST to leave London in May 2021 was operated by East Midlands Railway
- that the electrification of the Midland Main Line north of Kettering was suspended in July 2017 before being revived in December 2021?
- [ALT0a] that the electrification of the Midland Main Line north of Kettering was revived in December 2021 after being paused in 2015, then scrapped in July 2017?
Source: paused scrapped in 2017, then revived
To mainspace
source: https://www.ign.com/wikis/sun-haven/Tips_and_Tricks_for_Beginners
- that in the farm sim Sun Haven, players can marry Lucia, the leader?
- that in the video game Sun Haven, players can marry the leader Lucia? (needed to add video game, otherwise, readers think its talking about a place called Sun Haven)
Scripts I use
- User:Theleekycauldron/DYK promoter, (PSHAW) one which helps me promote and close nominations
- User:Shubinator/DYKcheck one that checks if an article is eligible for DYK (especially prose size and newness)
To install these scripts, go to one or both links and follow the instructions from them. Only registered users can install/use user scripts however
