  • Article recently promoted to GA, nominated for DYK in time and within policy (neutral, adequately sourced and free of copyvio). ALT0 is interesting and cited to a NYT source behind a paywall (AGF). Image is labeled PD. Only a QPQ review is pending. Dee03 04:50, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

  • Hmm. Looks like OTD was added to the criteria in 2015 and I somehow missed it. Anyway, the GA review notification template which currently says If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know. should also be updated.
