I made the [[Draft:Sun Haven]] article which is a [[farm sim]] game. If that gets approved, (i.e. reviewed and moved to article), would that video game pop up on DYK? Obviously it would not be approved rn due to notability reasons. [[User:JuniperChill|JuniperChill]] ([[User talk:JuniperChill|talk]]) 15:31, 15 February 2024 (UTC) |

LA Meetup: February 17, 2024
Edit-a-thon and Wikipedia Day Celebration | |
---|---|
![]() Please join Wikimedians of Los Angeles on Saturday, February 17 from 12:00 to 4:00 pm for a Los Angeles and West Hollywood-themed edit-a-thon at the West Hollywood Library. (For the details and to sign up, see Wikipedia:Meetup/Los Angeles/February 2024.) We'll also be celebrating Wikipedia's 23rd birthday/Wikipedia Day. (There will be cake!) We hope to see you there!

Theleekycauldron, can I ask you to please take a look at this nomination, and see whether you think my objection is warranted or not. I've stopped the nomination in its tracks, but on further reflection, while the hook seems to be obscuring the general thrust of the article, I'm not sure whether that is a sufficient objection, nor whether the issue about whether the 0.2% number is adequately sourced based on the current discussion linked to by the nominator should even hold things up. I'd appreciate it if you could render an opinion, and will defer to you. Thank you very much. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:50, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Oof. If Wikipedia's core purpose is to inform readers, then using a hook that gives an impression counter to the general thrust of an article hinders that purpose. I also agree that the use of "could" in the hook is part of the issue, given that we're talking about a purely hypothetical policy proposal. My view is that it would be irresponsible of us to run that hook given the lack of context, just as it would be irresponsible to run a negative BLP hook. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 04:16, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- Sdkb, I just saw that despite my ? icon, which should have held it from being promoted, the nomination was promoted anyway about four hours after I posted the above by AirshipJungleman29, who had earlier approved it as confirmation of a first-time reviewer's review. I'm a little too involved to pull the nomination myself, at this point, but if either you or theleekycauldron feel it appropriate to do so, I have no objections. It seems that, given the opposite opinion being posted to the nomination about an hour after I posted here, this is going to be controversial. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:10, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, I don't know why I did that—I must have had a total brainfreeze. Maybe I should take a break from prepping (I've done most of the past month and the last fourteen sets on the trot). ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 05:39, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- If you could correct my error and take the nom back to DYK, I'd be very grateful (difficult for me to do right now from a mobile device). ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 05:41, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
- AirshipJungleman29, I'd already left the computer for the night, or I would have been happy to do so. Thank you for all the prep work; I once did all sets for six of the seven days between Christmas and New Years, and this was back in the days of three sets a day (six hooks per set), and it's exhausting to be constantly at work like that.

I liked your RfA comment! - Today I am happy about a singer on the Main page (at least for the first hours), after TFA the same day last year. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:39, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
When I made today's story I was sure Alfred Grosser would appear on RD today, which may happen or not but I go to bed. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:42, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
Thanks to Seiji Ozawa. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:16, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

AirshipJungleman29 (submissions), with one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, and two DYKs;

As a reminder, competitors may submit work for the first round until 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February, and the second round starts 1 March. Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round; currently, competitors need at least 15 points to progress. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges (Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs), Epicgenius (talk · contribs), and Frostly (talk · contribs)) are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Would Sun Haven be DYK after it gets approved?
I made the Draft:Sun Haven article which is a farm sim game. If that gets approved, (i.e. reviewed and moved to article), would that video game pop up on DYK? Obviously it would not be approved rn due to notability reasons. JuniperChill (talk) 15:31, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
