Created by Bellerophon5685 (talk). Self-nominated at 22:37, 29 August 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Child abduction scare of 2002; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Unfortunately, I think there are several problems with this nomination. The article was nominated some twelve days after it was created. QPQ has not been done. Moreover, the article most probably needs some major cleanup before it's fit for the main page. In my opinion, it is currently a ponderous and indiscriminate collection of news clippings and quotes related to the "Child abduction scare of 2002"... KINGofLETTUCE 👑 🥬 11:48, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
12 days is just too long to be granted an IAR exemption, but even ignoring that, the nominator has not responded to the above concerns despite activity elsewhere, and has also not provided a QPQ. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:44, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
