Internet Slowdown Day

[edit]

A "spinning wheel of death" used to promote Internet Slowdown Day

Created by Darmokand (talk), Piotrus (talk). Nominated by Piotrus (talk) at 11:29, 11 September 2014 (UTC).

  • New enough, long enough even without the list of participants. Neutral, well sourced. Hook is cited in article. No indication of copyvio or close paraphrasing in the checking I did. QPQ done. However, the article contains a number of bare URLs as references: these should be converted to standard refs before the article can go on DYK. (I might work on fixing them tomorrow.) Also, if the "spinning wheel" gif is to be included, it needs a caption to indicate what it is and its relevance to the hook. G S Palmer (talkcontribs) 01:59, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
  • OK, the refs are fixed. Once @Piotrus decides what caption/hook alteration they want to go with the gif, this will be good to go. G S Palmer (talkcontribs) 16:33, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
