A fact from Susan Bernal appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 6 November 2021 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Colombian-born Susan Bernal is developing new cements that can reduce the substantial CO2 emissions currently caused by concrete?
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
... that as between 5 and 8% of global CO2 emissions are caused by concrete, Colombian-born Susan Bernal is developing new and novel cements?Source: ""
ALT1:... that Colombian-born Susan Bernal is developing new cements that will reduce the global CO2 emissions currently caused by concrete?Source: ""
There are some sourcing issues that will need to be resolved before this can be passed for DYK. There are a number of citation needed tags, and one failed verification tag (because that source doesn't mention any award for her in 2020). In addition, [1] is a blog, and therefore a self-published source that isn't considered reliable. Is there a better source for the content sourced by this? The article itself looks really interesting (and good to get some diversity in biographies at DYK), if/when the sourcing issues are resolved I will conduct a re-review. Pinging article nominator Victuallers and creator Jesswade88, as not sure which one of you would be best to fix the missing sources. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:21, 25 October 2021 (UTC)i have[reply]
@Joseph2302: Thanks for the review. I think I have addessed the points you raised. Can I suggest that the "Boletin ingenieria informa" is published at a site called blogspot.com, but it is as the translation confirms an "Informative engineering bulletin" and isn't a blog per se. Victuallers (talk) 07:22, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Y Article is long enough (1861 characters), new enough (created 15 October, nominated 17 October), and article is now within policy for sourcing ("Boletin ingenieria informa" looks reliable as per above)
Y Hooks are short enough, interesting, in the article and well cited. I prefer ALT1, as it focuses more on her (ALT0 has her name near the end of the hook, which is less prominent). But either is fine to promote

Overall, this now passes, thank you for making the required sourcing improvements. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:39, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
