  • Comment: While this DYK nom is a bit late (9 days) I did not nominate it on time as the article was AfD almost immediately after the creation so I waited for the AfD to finish (to avoid wasting the reviewer's time if this was deleted). I DYKed it as soon as the AfD ended. I hope this is not a big problem and the rules allow for such cases?

  • This article is new enough, under the circumstances, and long enough. The hook facts may be in the source quotes you give above but do not seem to be in the article, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:38, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
  • @Cwmhiraeth: I did rephrase some sentences to avoid direct quotations in hooks. " most popular illegal anime streaming site for most of the 2010s" ( KissAnime was described as "one of the world’s biggest streaming anime websites".[2] TorrentFreak reported that the sites had audiences of millions and that for a time, KissAnime was "the most visited pirate site in the world".[4]) and the site's dates of establishment and closure cited later. The "was more popular in places where there are few legal alternatives" is based on "providing access to content that is not legally available, particularly in Southeast Asia and India" cited to [1]. I don't think the hooks go beyond what is in the article/sources? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:22, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
  • @Piotrus: The bit I objected to in ALT0 was "for most of the 2010s". It does not say that in the article. In ALT1, the article refers to the website being appreciated in Southeast Asia and India because there is little alternative, but does not say it is more popular there than elsewhere.

  • "most-visited" probably equates to "most popular", so I will approve ALT0b. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:51, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Piotrus, next time, if an article is at AfD, nominate it anyway, and note that it's at AfD, which should be sufficient to prevent a reviewer from wasting their time. AfDs don't always close promptly, and if this had been nominated any later you could have had a problem with it being too late to qualify. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:28, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
