Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Titina Silá; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

This would be in time to be held for 30 January, possibly with a tweaked ALT0. ALT0 and ALT1 check out, ALT2 AGF to the offline source. I don't find ALT2 as interesting as the others. ALT0a in case a promoter decides to run this on 30 January: Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 01:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ALT0a: ... that the national women's day of Guinea-Bissau commemorates the death of Titina Silá, who was killed on this day during the war of independence?

I'd support ALT0a, if space can be made on 30 January. --Grnrchst (talk) 09:19, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
