Created by Soman (talk). Self-nominated at 12:06, 24 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Ukrderzhnatsmenvydav; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Excluding "(building pictured)", the hook is 199 characters. It's just below the limit, but is there a way to shorten the hook even further? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 10:30, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- We could remove "(Ukrderzhnatsmenvydav)", we could use "USSR" instead of "Soviet Union". --Soman (talk) 23:17, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - Those could work. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:43, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In the interest of this moving forward, the following new versions are suggested below:

ALT1a ... that by 1941 the Lviv branch of the Ukrderzhnatsmenvydav (building pictured) was the main publisher of Polish language literature in the Soviet Union?
ALT1b ... that by 1941 the Lviv branch of the State Publishing House for National Minorities in the Ukrainian SSR (building pictured) was the main publisher of Polish language literature in the Soviet Union?

The original hook has been struck. A full review is still needed. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:32, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Article was nominated within time after move to mainspace, long enough, well written though the sections are somewhat sparse, and referenced to what appear to be mostly reliable sources (at least nothing jumps out as a priori unreliable); AGF on offline, Ukrainian, and Polish sources. The hooks are not terribly interesting IMO, but in ALT1a the name 'Ukrderzhnatsmenvydav' alone should be enough to get some attention. QPQ done, image is in the article and appropriately licensed. Good to go. Constantine ✍ 20:17, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Assyrian schools?

The link goes to a dab page which doesn't go anywhere modern. Secretlondon (talk) 14:40, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Link pipe fixed now, to Assyrian people. --Soman (talk) 17:02, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
