DYK for Great Salt Lake whale hoax

[edit]

On 17 October 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Great Salt Lake whale hoax, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a sensational story in 1888 claimed that James Wickham, a British scientist, introduced two whales to the Great Salt Lake in an attempt to start a whale oil industry? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Great Salt Lake whale hoax. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Great Salt Lake whale hoax), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
