... that thousands of political prisoners in Indonesia were interned in the Waeapo River valley in Buru? Source: [1]

Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Tomorrow Belongs to Me
Comment: I would link an article about the Indonesian mass killings of 1965–66, but these are the political prisoners interned 4-6 years after the killings. Don't seem to see the Buru exiles being mentioned there.

Don't see the hook fact in the article (no mention of "10,000", only "thousands of political prisoners were incarcerated in Buru..."). Source is inaccessible to me, so which one is it? Also awaiting QPQ. Cheers, Kingoflettuce (talk) 08:42, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kingoflettuce: Let's play it safe and go with "thousands". QPQ has been added. Juxlos (talk) 03:40, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kingoflettuce: You there? Juxlos (talk) 07:05, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, missed this. All seems to be in order now. Article is new and long enough, hook fact appropriately cited and interesting, QPQ done. Cheers! Kingoflettuce (talk) 08:14, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
