Created by Gobonobo (talk). Self-nominated at 17:12, 2 December 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/RoboCop statue; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

  • Article is new and long enough at time of nomination, hook is cited and interesting; Earwig's happy. The article is in good shape. Personally I'm leaning towards ALT1 - the humour there is more appealing than the delay of a public project. The wording of it tripped me up a little, might it be better as:
  • ALT1a... that RoboCop's groin had to be partially shaved off during the assembly of his statue?
  • Either way, RoboCop needs to be wikilinked; likely most of the people seeing the hook will never have heard of it. Frzzltalk;contribs 17:08, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm open to ALTs, but "a RoboCop's groin" makes no sense. gobonobo + c 13:14, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, that was a mistake on my part, removed the "a". I'm happy to approve ALT1 with RoboCop linked if you think it's better. Frzzltalk;contribs 16:02, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- fine, approving the original ALT0 with a linked RoboCop Frzzltalk;contribs 17:23, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
