- Reviewed: No QPQ (first nomination)
Created by Dylnuge (talk). Self-nominated at 02:02, 14 August 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Autonomous (novel); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
New enough and long enough. Nominator is QPQ-exempt. Quite a fascinating one here, with all three hook facts checking out. Very enjoyable read and review. No textual issues as Earwig flags reviewer quotes. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:37, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for reviewing this Sammi Brie! I realize I made a mistake in summarizing the source in hook 1; instead of saying "Canada" it's more specifically referring to Saskatchewan and the rest of the Canadian Prairies. I'm not sure what the process is for fixing this after review. The hook should still be fine if "Canada" is changed to "Saskatchewan" or "the prairies of Canada" (either works I think). I've fixed it in the article; LMK what the right way is to go about fixing it here. Thanks! Dylnuge (Talk • Edits) 23:42, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
