Template talk:Did you know/Approved/week-3

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page transcludes a subset of the nominations found on the page of all the approved nominations for the "Did you know" section of the Main Page. It only transcludes the nominations filed under dates of the fourth-most recent week. The page is intended to allow editors to easily review recent nominations that may not be displaying correctly on the complete page of approved nominations if that page's contents are causing the page to hit the post-expand include size limit.

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
  • Cited: Yes - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
  • Interesting: Yes
QPQ: Done.

Overall: New enough, long enough, Earwig notes no notable copyvio. Hook is interesting but on an offline source (Österreich in Geschichte und Literatur, Vol. 40-41) so I am assuming good faith. QPQ is completed. Everything seems to check out! Ornithoptera (talk) 05:37, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Soman and Ornithoptera: This article needs a robust copy edit before it gets anywhere near the main page.--Launchballer 23:23, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, Launchballer, but you'd have to be more specific. If you have a problem with another editors tick, you should explain why. You've left drive-by comments on {toomanysections} on a number of DYK nominations in the recent past, is that the issue? --Soman (talk) 11:29, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think merging some of the sections would help. I need to go out, but I'll take another look when I get back.--Launchballer 11:37, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • New article that was moved to mainspace on 2 May 2024‎‎ is 5,109 characters and nominated on the same day. No copyvios detected (AGF sources which can't go through Dup detector). Article is well-sourced. Main hook is 108 characters long (ALT1 is 160); both are under 200 character max. and are interesting. Refs 2 (verifying ALT1) and 5 (verifying the main hook) are reliable sources from The Jakarta Post. QPQ done. Looks good to go! —Bloom6132 (talk) 08:54, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Crisco 1492 and Bloom6132: As written, this article would deserve {{lead too short}}, can this be expanded?--Launchballer 23:30, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Meh, I think the lead as is suffices. Anything over one sentence is fine for a ~5,000 character-long, non-GA (and this could easily be three-sentences long with the second sentence split). —Bloom6132 (talk) 06:28, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Article was nominated in the proper time. Five time expansion verified. Article is policy compliant with sourcing and citations. No copyright violations found. Hook fact is verified and moderately interesting. Hook length is fine. This can be promoted.4meter4 (talk) 20:40, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • New (to GA status), long enough (at 17491 characters of prose), QPQ (not required). This seems alright for DYK, given the GA status. I would prefer ALT1 btw. JuniperChill (talk) 21:59, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Cited: Yes - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith

Overall: I found this an interesting hook that caught my attention. AGF on restricted sources, although available extracts seemed to confirm the facts. Only comment would be that this article could possibly be improved by an infobox, e.g. Template:Infobox medical condition, or other supporting material, although this is not strictly necessary for DYK.

  • New article that was created on 6 May 2024‎‎‎ is 2,548 characters and nominated on the same day. No copyvios detected (high confidence of violation due to direct quotes that have all been cited; AGF sources which can't go through Dup detector). Article is well-sourced. Hook is 106 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting. Ref 4 (verifying the hook) is a reliable source from The Scotsman. QPQ done.

Laura Veale[edit]

(
)
  • Source: Several, including: Harrogate Advertiser: "Hampsthwaite commemorates North Yorkshire’s first female doctor Laura Sobey Veale". Note: This fact has had to be carefully interpreted. It was initially expressed as "the first Yorkshire woman to become a doctor" on the brown plaque, pictured in the article and written by the eminent Harrogate historian Malcolm Neesam. He meant "Yorkshire-born". However it has since been interpreted to mean that she was the first female doctor to practise in Yorkshire, which would be incorrect. Edith Pechey was the first qualified woman doctor to practise in Yorkshire, but she was born in Essex, so to local understanding she was definitely not a "Yorkshire woman" (they are very parochially-minded here). Veale was born in Yorkshire.

  • The article was moved to mainspace yesterday, so is new enough. It is far more than long enough and properly uses in-line citations (perhaps even more so than necessary for some sentences). The copyvio detector doesn't find anything other than names of things and quotes that are properly used in the article. The hook is short enough, interesting, and is cited inline. The QPQ has been done and there's no image to review. Looks good to go! SilverserenC 20:41, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you for the review, Silver seren Re the "even more so than necessary", you'll find that some experienced editors are doing that for a good reason. For example, if you have a "first" in the article, that is going to be automatically questioned and double-checked, and rightly so. Therefore, it is worth finding as many different, independent sources as possible for that "first" and including them all in the article. There is also the fact that some sources may be accessible to some readers (e.g. readers with a subscription, readers in the UK, etc.) and some source may not be accessible to all (e.g. readers outside the UK or without subscription), so it's worth giving them a few alternative sources. A third reason is that various sources give different aspects to the same fact, and some sources also include extra facts which the editor chooses not to include in the article, but which are extremely interesting. In the cast of historical articles, contemporary sources may give the historical standpoint on the matter. Extra sources containing additional facts may also allow other editors to expand the article. Nothing is wasted in this particular article, and there is a reason for everything.

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
  • Cited: Yes - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith

Overall: AGF on foreign language sources – I was able to Google Translate the source page to confirm it, but because that's not a perfect translation, the AGF stands. Proposing a slight rewording in the ALT below to increase hookiness, but either would work. Nomader (talk) 14:27, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
