Created by Khanate General (talk). Self nominated at 04:03, 20 March 2014 (UTC).

Reviewed and Copy Edited article per GOCE criteria; well done and referenced/cited (although with only two distinct reference sources). May want to mention that Ariq was Kublai's brother in the hook to peak interest. GenQuest ^{"Talk to Me"} 04:34, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Full review needed using DYK criteria. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:41, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, adequately referenced. I added URLs for book previews of three sources, and can confirm that the page creator has done a good job avoiding close paraphrasing. Hook refs verified and cited inline. The only thing holding up this nomination is an adequate QPQ. The one cited by the page creator, in which s/he wrote, The alt hook meets the DYK requirements. It's a great article, didn't evaluate the article by any DYK criteria, and another editor had to complete that review. Yoninah (talk) 23:23, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/UEFA Nations League as my second QPQ. My first QPQ should have been more thorough.--Khanate General ☪ talk ^{project mongol conquests} 09:15, 12 April 2014 (UTC)

Perfect, thanks. QPQ done. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 18:19, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
