Comment – A few comments on Do You Knows in portals are in order. As BrownHairedGirl and User:Newshunter12 point out, the Do You Know section of the Main Page has quality criteria, so that the hooked articles are recently improved articles, and the DYK section of the Main Page is not a general trivia section. The Do You Knows in portals are almost always a general trivia section. However, there is neither a guideline requiring Do You Knows in portals, nor a guideline specifying that, if there are Do You Knows, they have passed any test. They are therefore almost always a general trivia section. General trivia are not permitted in article space. My own thinking is that portals almost always have Do You Knows precisely because providing general trivia on a one-time basis is fun for portal originators, and is a way of sneaking around the rule against general trivia in article space. The Do You Knows of portals are useless, and are not a reason to keep a portal.
