Spillings Hoard, Gotland Museum
[edit]( Back to T:TDYK )
( Article history links: )
- ... that the Spillings Hoard (pictured) in the Gotland Museum is the world's largest Viking silver treasure?
- Reviewed: I am reviewing Hammarlöv Church and Christopher Hornsrud

The Hoard is ok to go, but the museum is not new and, I'm pretty sure, not expanded enough recently.
- ALT1: ... that the Spillings Hoard (pictured) in the Gotland Museum is the world's the largest Viking silver treasure? - that would be ok. Johnbod (talk) 22:00, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- I beg to differ. The Gotland Museum was worked on as a draft and moved to main on the very same day as the Spillings Hoard and the DYK for both of them was made on that day as well. An article does not come into existence until it is moved to the main space for the first time. I quote the Wikipedia:Did you know#DYK rules: "For articles initially developed outside of article namespace, the date the article first appears in article space is counted as the first day towards the DYK seven-day rule." - w.carter-Talk 23:46, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- It was created just over 7 days ago, but the prose was certainly expanded more than fivefold in the past 7 days, which makes it eligible. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:05, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
- I'm sorry Anna Frodesiak, this doesn't make any sense to me. The Gotland Museum article was moved from draft to main, and therefore created, on 19 April and nominated for DYK the very same day. And today is the 21 April. How is any of this 7 days? Are you looking at one of the articles that I use as QPQ on this page? w.carter-Talk 00:15, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
- I wasn't looking at the Quid pro quo. Sorry, I'm still just waking up. :) I wasn't paying attention to the draft-to-mainspace move date. So, it was not expanded in the mainspace fivefold within the last 7 days, so that is out. However, the DYK was put in only 1 hour and 24 minutes after it hit the mainspace. That is definitely "within 7 days". So yes, Bob's your uncle. It is eligible. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:27, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Ok, missed that, but you need to say if you've done that (and when), not expect the reviewer to search through the edit history. Original hook good to go, with missing "the" added to the hook (I've done). Johnbod (talk) 00:25, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
- Ok, so all's well that ends well. Thanks for the review and the tweak to the hook. I've never had to declare that I moved articles from draft to main before (I always check the edit history to see that everything is up to par), but will certainly do so in the future.
