... that in Jewish astrology it is permissible to gain an occult knowledge of the stars' influences on human beings, but that the actual worshiping of the stars is prohibited?

LlywelynII, thanks for helping me promote the article Vatican Hebrew MS 133 to DYK status. My question now concerns the article Jewish astrology which has been nominated, some time ago, for DYK, but seems to be on hold, or perhaps, has even been forgotten. What can I do to expedite its DYK status? Davidbena (talk) 08:34, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
Well, this is weird. 1st, I'm happy you saw that more as a force for good than just being annoying. I do think that article ended up better, even though I was just helping prune around the edges. 2nd, this is nuts. They did fully approve this and then (I guess) forgot about it. I will try to look around and take care of this for you but in the future if anything happens like this—things like this don't normally happen—the surest bet would be to poke the active project people at Wikipedia talk:Did you know. I know that's kind of hidden but it's the talk page for the queue part where the promoters and admins talk about what actually goes up next and how. 3rd, what a fun topic. Thanks for creating it! — LlywelynII 14:15, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
@Davidbena: Oh, one thing that might've caused this problem. @No Swan So Fine: seems to have "approved" your nomination while simultaneously ing your QPQ instead of N/Aing it. Is this another one of the nominations you've submitted that are in your first five? If so, leave a note about that so the promoter sees it. — LlywelynII 14:25, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for @ing me! I've fixed it to NA. No Swan So Fine (talk) 15:32, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
I pulled the article from Queue 6 due to citation concerns. These need to be resolved before this can be promoted again. Z1720 (talk) 13:29, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
Marking it as unapproved until citation needed tags are resolved. Cielquiparle (talk) 04:52, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
@Cielquiparle: I am not sure what you mean by saying "until citation needed tags are resolved." Can you please explain to me what is meant by this? If you mean the place in the article where the hook is mentioned, it can be found in the first sentence of the section which is headed by the words: Proscription against idolatry. I would gladly fix the problem myself if I knew what exactly you are referring to.Davidbena (talk) 22:49, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
@Davidbena: In the article, I have placed "citation needed" tags after the sentences and other places that need inline citations. These references are not for the hook, but to verify other information in the article. These should be resolved. Z1720 (talk) 01:40, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
Aha! Now I understand. I'll go through the article and try and fill-in these requested citations.Davidbena (talk) 02:10, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
@Z1720:, @Cielquiparle:, to the best of my ability, I have filled-in all the requested citations with their individual sources. If I've missed anything, please let me know.Davidbena (talk) 03:51, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks Davidbena. There is still one unresolved cn-tag in the Kabbalah section, and the table in the Astral influences section requires citations(s). Cielquiparle (talk) 04:00, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
I have addressed those issues as well. Thanks!Davidbena (talk) 20:50, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
Restoring green tick as citation needed tags have been resolved. Cielquiparle (talk) 03:07, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, that's what I thought. It had been removed from Template talk:Did you know#Articles created/expanded on July 17 but somehow missed being in the Template:Did you know/Queue. For now, I've just relisted it on the normal page and hope someone will notice all the ticks. If that gets autohidden again, post something to that talk page I gave you. Even weirder: Same thing seems to have happened to my {{Did you know nominations/Marcus Junius Gracchanus}} and {{Did you know nominations/Temple of Piety}}. — LlywelynII 14:19, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
