- Good to go? Can expect a tick? Any other service? Faizan 09:19, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- If this is a really important event, try WP:ITN --Tito☸Dutta 09:44, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- See these --Tito☸Dutta 09:45, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

- Comment: Do we even need a separate article for the attack when the house article itself has like less than 10 sentences? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 10:11, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, the house article will have no effect on the terrorist incident. Faizan 10:19, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- Ofcourse! An article on wikipedia will hardly have effect on the terrorist attacks happening in real world. What i meant was that there is no need of two different article. The attack-article should be merged with the house article. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 10:50, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- Please Dharma. Both articles have gathered enough coverage, and I am working on them. You are welcome to start a merge proposal. Faizan 10:51, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- If i start a merge proposal, the article will not go on main page, in DYK or ITN, until the merger discussion concludes. The discussion will go on for very long and then it will have no chance of ITN as the news will be stale by then. For merged article, there are different rules of DYK for calculating expansion. I have not done that anytime but maybe Tito knows how that is assessed. Pick is your. You and other major contributors of the article can have a informal merge discussion and boldly merge the two article without long-lasting-formal discussion. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 11:00, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- Let it be listed at the main page. I don't really think there is a need to merge. The home article is itself important, and the article covering the incident is too. The home article needs expansion, no doubt, but this should not result in sacrifice of another article. I don't know why the home article did not undergo expansion. But don't worry, things will be fine there. Faizan 11:04, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) Yes, a merge proposal will delay both ITN and DYK. I feel ITN will either be rejected or pass marginally. I have added 2 citation needed templates.
I am seeing few WikiProject Pakistan DYKs are being quickpassed these days. It was one of those. If a reviewer overlooks a minor typo or a minor DMY, MDY issue, that does not matter very much, but, issue like copyvio/close paraphrasing are important. --Tito☸Dutta 11:08, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
