Created by Wuerzele (talk). Self-nominated at 03:49, 19 May 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Meron Estefanos; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Have made a few minor changes to the article, apart from that alll seems fine. Hook is verified, Earwig is fine. Article is of a reasonable length. Mention me when you've added a QPQ. Frzzl talk · contribs 20:28, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

New enough, long enough, very well cited. Hook directly cited and rather interesting IMHO. Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:33, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
