it doesn't say that he is a Prince, but simply that the law absolved him of the crimes because it deemed him a vain megalomaniac and that saying in public, I am a Prince and making false stamps is not a crime. 2A02:B121:8011:2C9B:9187:1294:1E39:3880 (talk) 08:36, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Created by BuySomeApples (talk). Self-nominated at 02:27, 20 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Stefano Černetić; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

The DYK is certaily interesting, and the sources cited support the statement. I'm IAR'ing the 9/10 days, given the AfD and the very interesting hook, so no problems there. I can't find the corresponding source and body text for the fact he falsely claimed to be a prince of Macedonia, so that BLP issue needs to be sorted. I'll need to do a further spot-check still for BLP/copyvio. Earwig is clean, QPQ is done. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 18:56, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've done spot checks on four paragraphs, showing good text-source integrity and no copyvio/transvio :). Minor point: What make Wine Spectator a reliable source? This may be subjective, but this seems a bit too close to gossip to me? —Femke 🐦 (talk) 20:39, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the review! Ref2 (https://www.rtlnieuws.nl/nieuws/buitenland/artikel/5322041/nepprins-montenegro-djukanovic-cernetic) mentions him claiming to be prince of Macedon, although I think his claim to being prince of Montenegro was the more legally significant since the Montenegrin government is the one that complained. Wine Spectatory is probably reliable because it seems to have editorial standards for its writers/editors (https://www.winespectator.com/articles/about-our-tastings). I can definitely remove it though if you're uncertain, it isn't really an important part of the article and the topic is a bit gossip-y since the winery owner is ultimately the source.

Please ensure it's clear in the article that RTL Nieuws is the source here. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 14:43, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BuySomeApples: Please address the above. Z1720 (talk) 02:22, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Femke and Z1720: The nominator hasn't edited since the 2nd. Should we wait for their return or should the nomination be marked for closure? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 07:05, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've added the citation myself now, as it would be a shame if this is not presented on the main page. So now :). —Femke 🐦 (talk) 08:37, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
