Wounds of Armenia[edit]

Abovian

Moved to mainspace by Yerevanci (talk). Self nominated at 22:53, 22 March 2013 (UTC).

  • The article was created on 12 Mar 2013, and expanded by much less than 5x on 22 Mar 2013, thereby making it uneligible for DYK. Sorry! MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk) 23:15, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
  • But the article has not "been worked on exclusively in a user or user talk subpage or at articles for creation and then moved" because there are substantial changes on the article history? Anyway, a second opinion is necessary. MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk) 15:22, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Article was indeed created in userspace and not moved to article space until March 22, as noted in the article's history and confirmed by DYKcheck. This qualifies under the "newness" requirement as being eligible for DYK—it was nominated the same day it was moved—and needs a full review. (It's one of the oddities of Wikipedia that the only evidence of a move is a single line in the history file, and not a terrifically explanatory one at that.)

  • Okay, thank you for the clarification. Size and date fine, citation accepted on good faith, but the hook is wrong to say "author's death" when it explicitly says he disappeared. Suggest a re-wording to "author's disappearance". MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk) 11:15, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
  • the "author's [author's name]'s disappearance" is a bit awkward, this might be better:
  • ALT2 ... that Wounds of Armenia, the first Armenian novel, was published 10 years after the disappearance of its author Khachatur Abovian (pictured)? MasterOfHisOwnDomain (talk) 23:08, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
  • Okay, good to go.
