- Comment: I've also reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/Jamal Farhan and in the past, stepped in with numerous student nominations. (Mostly closing them, as they were typically not applicable for DYK.) It's been a while since I've been back in this area, honestly.

Overall: 
Everything checks out here. Personally I'd go for ALT1; the fact that there was a second attempt isn't as well-known and would certainly be interesting. Cat's Tuxedo (talk) 17:09, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- I'm fine with the second alt being chosen - I kind of think that the first one is a little clunky in comparison, honestly. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 11:52, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
Title
[edit]The title goes against WP:CONCISE. "North American" only makes sense if any non-US North American country is involved (which is not). There are no animation adaptations to distinguish it from. Sailor Moon (1994 TV pilot) goes to the point as per the articles listed at Category:Unaired television pilots (CC) Tbhotch™ 03:51, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
- I'm fine with the title change. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 12:07, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
Replaced the fair use image
[edit]A well-meaning editor replaced the fair use version I uploaded with a larger resolution that they added to Wikimedia Commons. I've reinstated the version I uploaded. The reason is that the pilot is still held under a restrictive copyright so non-free fair use rules apply here. It must be tagged with the proper rationales and it can only be of a certain resolution/size. I did consider that the other version has the YouTuber's channel name watermarked onto it, but I don't know that it's really necessary to have it on the image. It can illustrate that the YouTuber discovered it and uploaded it to their channel (with permission), but that's something that can be done with words alone in the article.
