  • Article new enough (created today!), easily long enough. Hook verified, slightly too long at 205 characters including spaces. No QPQ done. I have reassessed the article article at B class. Hawkeye7 (talk) 02:13, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
    • I don't need to do QPQ since I am the nominator. --LlamaAl (talk) 02:20, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
      • Is this eligible? I thought we didn't put articles on DYK if they'd already made the Main Page, and this is currently linked at T:ITN. Nyttend (talk) 03:09, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
        • . Yup, you're right. Articles that have been featured on the main page's In the news section are ineligible. Sorry guys. Hawkeye7 (talk) 05:39, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
