Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Peter Lebeck; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • General eligibility:
  • New enough: No - Article is not new. Neither has it been expanded by 5 times, nor has it been promoted to GA. Qualifications for DYK nomination are unclear.
  • Long enough: Yes
  • Other problems: No - See above.
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation

QPQ: No - Pending.
Overall: Article and hook are fine. I'm just confused about why this has been nominated for DYK. It is not new, has not been expanded recently by at least 5 times, and has not been promoted to GA. May I please ask the nominator on what qualification they based this nomination on? (Also, upon further review of the article, I've found citation problems.) —CurryTime7-24 (talk) 17:29, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

@CurryTime7-24:: Put simply I wasn't aware of the DYK "new" criteria until long after I had finished the page for the most part, thought I'd try anyway after "revamping" the page as much as I could in the past couple days -- I'd expand it 5 times if I could, but there's literally nothing more to add here as far as I know. The main monograph by Wood tries very hard to stretch it out to book length to the point its noticeable, when there's really not that much to be said...he got killed by a bear and has a French-sounding last name. What referencing problems do you mean by the way? I'll fix them if you point them out.MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE IS REAL EMO!(talk or whatever) 19:37, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Hey there. No worries. Regarding the citation issue, let me take that over to the talk page for Lebeck, where discussion would be more on-topic. —CurryTime7-24 (talk) 19:56, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
