Article is new enough and long enough. Looks like there's some formatting issues with the image at right, I'd appreciate if someone else could take a look at that. Additionally, I have suggested an alternate hook that I think is a little bit less clunky, so a new reviewer would be necessary. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 20:37, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the image code, since the current flag is a non-free image and cannot be featured at DYK (only free images for the main page). BlueMoonset (talk) 13:44, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Jordano53: Date and length fine. However the hook source needs to be inline with the sentence in the article. QPQ isn't needed as this is his first nomination. No close paraprasing. Ping me once it's done and I can approve it. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 23:02, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@The C of E: Added. Should've made sure of that when nominating, thank you for checking. Jordano53 (talk) 02:54, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Jordano53: Sorry, where's the link? The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 08:19, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@The C of E: Crud, I misunderstood. Should be good now. Jordano53 (talk) 13:23, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Much better now. Thanks. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 14:40, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Remove the article[edit]

If you can't even put the flag on a stub about the flag, there isn't a point in keeping it. I suggest we move all info about the flag to the main Phoenix article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr.Bob.298 (talk • contribs) 18:07, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
