General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
Freely licensed: Used in article: Clear at 100px:

QPQ: None required.

Overall: Article is new and long enough and no plagiarism. The hooks are cited and ALT1 should be used as it is more interesting than the main one. QPQ not required by the user (this will be their fourth DYK nom FYI), and the picture is used in article, free use, and looks fine at 100px. One note Merbabu (that won't affect this nom), almost all the reference titles are WP:ALLCAPS aka "shouting". Please adjust those to normal title/sentence case. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:06, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Favre1fan93 for the review. A comment and a question: the "all caps" comes from the otherwise very handy citation generator at https://trove.nla.gov.au/ (eg, this article has cites under "i" at top left). I will contact them...maybe they can change it for future use. Also, how can find previous DYK's nominations? In my case, I nominated this article and Kulgoa recently, but don't recall the other two. thanks again, --Merbabu (talk) 22:28, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Merbabu: I can't speak to outside citation generators, but at least on Wikipedia, per WP:ALLCAPS, that should be avoided. In the DYK Toolbox template, there is a "QPQ check" link. Entering your username says you have DYK credit for Legion of Ratu Adil, Menara Kudus Mosque, and Kulgoa, and if you don't have any other active nominations, this will be your fourth. Once you hit 5, you need to start the QPQ process. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:01, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Favre1fan93 - of course, i wasn't pushing for CAPS, rather just saying where it came from. :-) As for the QPQ check, i don't think i had anything to do with a nomination...maybe i merely suggested them to the authors and the bot picked this up?. It was 10 years ago! :) whatever way, i will look out for DYK noms to review. thanks again. --Merbabu (talk) 02:53, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
