  •  Doing... --Tito☸Dutta 15:07, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Hook sources, article length, date checked. Copyvio checking tool is loading for last 1 minute. A working group, coordiated by — seems to be typo. I'll fix it. Do you want to suggest ALT? --Tito☸Dutta 15:12, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
  • ISSA dablink (fix) --Tito☸Dutta 15:14, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Thank you for a speedy review. ISSA fixed. I may find a bit more and then an ALT, am open for suggestions, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:20, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
  • I am actually not comfortable with the main hook for the following reason— 1st queue (US time zone) of 25 June is the last queue of 24 June in India, last queue of 25 June (US) will be the fist queue of 26 June in Australia. So, the hook may not be globally meaningful. --Tito☸Dutta 15:27, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Agreed, but does one day less or more really matter? It's not an invitation to a party ;) - actually we should probably run it a little later, 3rd slot, to avoid the idea of advertising. - We had a similar "today" hook for an 80th birthday. - General: I keep watching, send me a talkback only if I miss responding for a day or two, please, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Actually I sometimes need {{Talkback}}. Anyway, you can ask for second opinion at WT:DYK --Tito☸Dutta 16:07, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
  • We can wait a day or two. I nominated today to have some time until the day of celebration, but may actually find a bit more, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:26, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
As a second opinion, I think we should drop "today" and instead give the actual date, to avoid ambiguity. ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 08:49, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
I would agree if was the birthday of a person, but it's just an organization, the actual date seems not to matter so much, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:57, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
Avoiding "today":
ALT1: ... that the Swiss Informatics Society, celebrating 30 years, is the largest Swiss organization of IT academics and professionals? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:19, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Good to go. --Tito☸Dutta 15:00, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
