Reviewed: Still needed

Created by Gildir (talk). Self-nominated at 12:14, 25 July 2020 (UTC).[reply]

Hi Gildir, the article is currently too short to feature in DYk. Per the DYK criteria it must have 1,500 characters of text. Are you able to expand the article to meet this? - Dumelow (talk) 07:38, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gildir: - It is new enough, the article is now long enough, but it needs wikifying and copyediting. A QPQ is still needed. Can't perform a earwig check until you certify that this is complete. --evrik ^(talk) 04:53, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's been like close to a month. I think we need a verdict, @Evrik: Vincent^LUFan (talk) (Kenton!) 14:45, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. --evrik ^(talk) 23:18, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The nominator was pinged on his talk page on August 16 and 18. Meanwhile, he is actively editing Wikipedia. I'd give this till August 25 (one week from the last ping) before closing as unsuccessful. Yoninah (talk) 23:22, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

marking for closure as abandoned without a QPQ nor response from the nominator. Flibirigit (talk) 02:13, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
