Created by CurryTime7-24 (talk). Self-nominated at 22:59, 16 October 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Un día de vida; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Article meets DYK requirements and is free from close paraphrasing. Assuming good faith for the offline sources. I prefer ALT0 since it gets the main point across the best compared to the other hooks. The only issue is that the sentence that supports it, "Eventually Un día de vida became considered a classic of Yugoslav cinema", lacks a footnote. Once this is resolved and the QPQ is provided I will approve this. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:47, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
