Created by Partofthemachine (talk). Self-nominated at 22:20, 31 July 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Iribe Center; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• @Partofthemachine: New enough and long enough. Nominator is QPQ-exempt. The paragraph in Construction does not end in an inline citation (this is a DYK requirement). I would like to see maybe a few more independent sources if they exist. Hook fact does check out: It was this belief that he says led him to recently donate $31 million to the University of Maryland, where he met one of his cofounders, Michael Antonov, before dropping out as a freshman. Please ensure all paragraphs outside the lead end in inline citations. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 21:21, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

• @Sammi Brie: I have now added an inline citation to the end of that paragraph. Partofthemachine (talk) 04:08, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
