- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Sukadji Hendrotomo, Template:Did you know nominations/Oakwood Cemetery (Montgomery, Alabama)
- Comment: Per DYK check tool, 5x expansion began today (March 17), although I started editing a bit on March 10, took a break, and resumed editing on March 15.
- Update: March 19 – Added two QPQs per emergency backlog mode requirement. (Article was kept at AfD.)

5x expanded by Cielquiparle (talk). Self-nominated at 19:05, 17 March 2024 (UTC).[reply]

Number of QPQs required: 2. DYK is currently in unreviewed backlog mode and nominator has 61 past nominations.

Post-promotion hook changes will be logged on the talk page; consider watching the nomination until the hook appears on the Main Page.

QPQs done. Expansion is sufficient and recent, hook is interesting and confirmed in source, copyvio not detected by Earwig. Good to go. Juxlos (talk) 15:06, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
