Article seems good enough for DYK (all content referenced, hook is neutral enough - citing attributed praise), copyvio spotcheck at 20% seems good (green), long enough, new enough. QPQ is needed, please ping me when it is done. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:11, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus:

I think I had reviewed three nominations (as per best of my understanding). These are

Note to Sarvagyana guru and Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus: the QPQ reviews provided do not appear to be complete DYK reviews, covering all the basic DYK criteria such as newness, length, neutrality, free of copyvio, hook cited and interesting, and so on. In particular, Sankar Montoute and It's OK I'm OK only discuss the hook, and Hugh O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone only mentions length and "well-sourced" in its approval, which is not adequate. I have also adjusted both hooks to change the italics into quote marks; I also discovered that the article failed to properly identify the actual quotes for those hooks, which is technically a copyvio, so I have adjusted it accordingly. This meant adjusting the quotes to cover more material. (In once case, two apostrophes together were used in the article rather than the double-quote character, causing italics there rather than visible " marks at the beginning and end of the quote.) Piotrus, I think a more careful review of the quoted material is in order, given what I just found. Thank you. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:44, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BlueMoonset: I see, thank you. I confirmed before and double checked now that the quoted terms for the hook(s), i.e. 'watershed development' and 'best model' appear in sourced cited, so the article seems fine, once the QPQ reviews are done (well, a single one will suffice to pass this, but it would be good to fix the others, which @Sarvagyana guru: can then use as fuel for two more DYKs :) PS. Sarvagyana guru, please WP:PING me when you reply here to me, otherwise I may not see your message. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:10, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus: As per the feedback received, review of DYK for Sankar Montoute done. Review of It's OK I'm OK and Hugh O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone will also be attempted as per given suggestions. Sarvagyana guru (talk) 06:03, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BlueMoonset: I think the QPQ for the Sankar Montoute is ok now? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 07:22, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Piotrus, the new review seems to cover what's needed, though I haven't checked the details. (Minor quibble: if sources are being accepted AGF because they can't be checked online, then the tick should be the gray {{DYKtickAGF}} rather than the regular green ({{DYKtick}}, but it's a common error made by reviewers of all experience levels.) BlueMoonset (talk) 16:31, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Per above - GTG. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:05, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
