Shouldn't "Scooby-Doo" link to Scooby-Doo (character)? Cremastra (talk) 22:38, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but it's not eligible. First, the hook fact is not mentioned in the article. That's easily fixed, but more importantly, in the last week, the article has not had a five-times expansion (the last edit was April 17) or been designated a WP:GA. The article is currently over 5000 prose characters, so an expansion isn't feasible, but you could get it promoted to Good Article and then renominate. (The article was already a DYK in 2010, but a recent rule change allows another appearance after five years.) Please see WP:DYK for general information.
