Fort Binġemma[edit]
- ... that Fort Binġemma (pictured) in Malta has been illegally occupied since 2009?
- Reviewed: Banknotes of Demarary and Essequibo
Created by Xwejnusgozo (talk). Self-nominated at 23:29, 29 May 2015 (UTC).
New enough. Long enough. DYK check shows only 3 previous DYKs, so no QPQ needed. NPOV. Image suitable for main page. Good hook, backed up by the source, but the hook fact needs to be more explicitly stated in the article, with a cite immediately following it.
- Dup detector show some close paraphrasing, eg:
- Article: "used for espionage purposes including to train Albanian insurgents"
- Source: "used for espionage purposes including the training of Albanian insurgents"

- @Edwardx: I added the hook fact in the beginning of the article, and changed some of the paraphrasing. Xwejnusgozo (talk) 17:36, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
- Xwejnusgozo, since the review, you have had two more DYK credits, using up your "free" five submissions. You will need to do a quid pro quo (QPQ) review for this DYK nomination, and for all current and future nominations. You can check the reviewing guide for more information; DYK criteria are at WP:DYK, with deeper explanations at WP:DYKSG, if you need further information. Thanks for participating at DYK!

QPQ is still required, and Xwejnusgozo has not responded to a talk-page ping on the matter. Allowing one week for a response of any kind here. If nothing is heard by then, the nomination will be subject to closure. I do hope we get a response soon! BlueMoonset (talk) 19:35, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
- @BlueMoonset: I just reviewed Banknotes of Demarary and Essequibo. Is everything OK now? Xwejnusgozo (talk) 20:33, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks, Xwejnusgozo. I don't see that you checked a couple of the criteria in your QPQ review, such as close paraphrasing and neutrality, so you should probably do that and add the results to the review, but it otherwise looks good. Once that's done, I think we'll need Edwardx to confirm that he's satisfied with your earlier changes to fix the close paraphrasing and buttress the hook fact.

- @BlueMoonset: I checked the close paraphrasing and neutrality criteria, and both seem OK. I had removed the close paraphrasing and added a ref for the hook in the Fort Binġemma article back in May. Xwejnusgozo (talk) 21:12, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
