Hakka people, tulou
( Back to T:TDYK )
( Article history links: )
- ... that the Hakka people of southern China and the haka warriors of New Zealand both dwelt in circular forts (named 'tulou' and 'pā' respectively)?
- ALT1:... that ...? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
- Comment: double semantic coincidence here (hak(k)a homonymy + the fact that both happened to live in circular forts ; as a result the hook is made up of four articles

Hi Couiros22. To be featured in DYK (per the rules listed here) articles need to be newly created, recently expanded by 5x in length or recently approved as good articles. I don't think any of these apply to the articles you've nominated above? - Dumelow (talk) 12:41, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
As above, I don't think the nominator is aware of what DYK is for as they also nominated this one in November. Template:Did you know nominations/bongos eat burnt wood Cowlibob (talk) 15:34, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

- The previous nomination was ineligible for the same reason as this one, it has not been expanded, not new, not a GA etc. It was also incorrectly titled as this one is. I fear that you're nominating for DYK purely as it is an interesting piece of trivia Wikipedia:DYKNOT rather than per the rules. Please refer to the Wikipedia:DYKRULES before nominating again. It may be beneficial to ask some of our regular nominators before nominating so that they can check it or you may become frustrated as your nominations keep being rejected.
