- Comment: Since it fits, this hook could be held at the special occasion holding area until Christmas comes along.

- @Krisgabwoosh: This is not a review but a comment: we usually only allow special occasion hooks within six weeks of the nomination day. Christmas is 14 weeks from September 18, which is over twice the usual six week requirement. If you still wish to make the request you could ask on WT:DYK, but it can't be approved by a reviewer on this nomination page, it needs consensus at WT:DYK.

- I'm aware but wasn't sure how to square that with the seven-day rule for nominations. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 11:26, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
- If you really wanted to be safe, one option would have been to write this article in your userspace, then move it to mainspace on a date within the six weeks required. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:39, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Krisgabwoosh: Upon further reflection, I don't think this hook would fit the theme of Christmas and so I'd suggest it should just run as a regular hook. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 13:02, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- That's fine. It was only really a passing suggestion, not my main goal. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 17:47, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
Okay, this still needs a full review. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 01:28, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
New enough and long enough. QPQ present. Source checks out. No textual issues or copyvio. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:58, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Krisgabwoosh and Sammi Brie: I think this would be hilarious to run with the infobox image, and trim the hook a little. Any chance I could take the image? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 22:56, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Theleekycauldron: Looks like the image is appropriately licensed for this use. Go for it. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 22:57, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Theleekycauldron: I'd also support that; the resemblance is indeed quite uncanny. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 23:01, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
