  • Comment: This is my first nomination.

Moved to mainspace by N0nuun (talk). Self-nominated at 01:08, 29 July 2020 (UTC).[reply]

Hi N0nuun, welcome to DYK. Your article is long enough and as this is your first DYK nomination there is no need for a QPQ. No significant copyright violation, article is long enough, and well-sourced. However, I have a couple things:
  • The "History" section looks kind of "list"-y, if you get what I mean. Maybe consider restructuring it?
  • The first sentence in the article says "were" - I thought the boycott is still ongoing? Juxlos (talk) 03:37, 29 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you so much. I have read your concerns and I will work on them over the next few days. As for your second point, by the time that the nomination would be accepted (if it does), the boycott would have already ended, as it only covered the month of July. So if it hits the Main Page in August, then most of the boycott would've already ended. Also, I would very much prefer if ALT1 gets chosen instead of the first hook, because I think it sounds better than the first. Once again, thank you very much.

  • On August 18 the nominator left a note on his talk page that he is busy with other things and wouldn't mind if the nomination is closed. He has not edited Wikipedia since then. So we'll close this as unsuccessful. Yoninah (talk) 23:26, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
