Artists4Ceasefire

Created by John Cummings (talk). Self-nominated at 10:08, 15 March 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Artists4Ceasefire; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, and is well-sourced. Earwig picks up some text, but that is a mirror from WP. No QPQ required as this is the nominator's 5th DYK. I tagged a [who?] in the text as I think it would be really good to clarify specifics there. I paused on neutrality, as I wondered if there was any commentary on opposition to the open letter than was reported on (in reputable sources) - if so, that would be a good inclusion for balance. I also found this source which states the collective began on 20 October, so that would also be good detail to include. Lajmmoore (talk) 21:45, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Comment Thank you Lajmmoore for reviewing it, I've added the date in. Just a note for anyone interested, there's a discussion on the talk page about opposition to the group in general, the only thing I can find is a conspiracy theory which was promoted by the Israeli government Twitter account that the badges are secretly celebrating the killing of Israeli soldiers, Snopes debunked it and I've included this debunking in the article. Also I'm wondering if its possible to add some kind of restriction to the page for the date it is in DYK as I think it could be a target for vandalism by IP addresses.

  • Thanks @John Cummings: for addressing the points above. Looks good to me. Could the prepper ping us when it's in a DYK queue, so that it could be semi-protected for when it features? Many thanks Lajmmoore (talk) 07:00, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
