article was not expanded 5x within the previous 7 days before it was nominated on June 2. Looking at the edit history of the article, the nomination would have had to have been done sometime in mid-May to be eligible. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 22:06, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Gonzo fan2007:, sorry but I didn't realise DYK even existed up until a short while ago, and am disappointed that a lot of articles that I expanded 5-10x since I got a full account are not eligible due to the deadline, but I thought that this one might still be allowed to squeeze in? thanks Aszx5000 (talk) 08:39, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Aszx5000, I understand your frustration. The DYK criteria give reviewers a little leeway on the 7 day deadline, but not weeks. That said, if you can get this promoted to WP:GA, it becomes eligible for DYK again, just make sure you get the nomination in quickly after promotion. Also, please remember that a lack of Main Page recognition doesn't take away at all from the great improvement you made to the article! « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 13:38, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks for that. Aszx5000 (talk) 14:41, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Aszx5000, if you do take it to GA, let me know. I have a lot of GA reviews under my belt and happen to be an avid rock climber, so I would be happy to review it for you. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 15:06, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Gonzo_fan2007, much appreciated and I actually have Traverse (climbing) in the GA queue, along with a few other climbing articles that I have been overhauling for the last few months. Aszx5000 (talk) 15:52, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
