Category:Pages with a malformed DYK entry: Difference between revisions

This is a tracking category. It is used to build and maintain a list or lists of pages—primarily for the sake of the lists themselves and their use in article and category maintenance. It is not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. More information: This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set. These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience. These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or subcategories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications). Typically, tracking categories are automatically populated by templates invoked in pages or by the MediaWiki software (see Special:TrackingCategories for an overview of the latter).

Administrators: Please do not delete this category as empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This category keeps track of DYK entries of {{DYK talk}} and {{Article history}} that differ from the standard format

• |entry=... that [fact]? (for {{DYK talk}})
• |dykentry=... that [fact]? (for {{Article history}})

It should not be considered authoritative in the sense that the detection logic is still being tweaked and will not handle certain non-standard DYK hooks, like

• |entry=... that in 1782, the [[Qianlong Emperor]] enquired "[[Lacquerware|lacquer]] is cause for ten officials to protest; what if it is also '''[[Carved lacquer|carved]]'''?" ''(example pictured)''

Those cases can be bypassed by add |bypass-error=yes to the relevant {{DYK talk}} or |dykignoreerror=yes in the {{Article history}} template.
