Saraya Awliya al-Dam
- ... that an Iraqi paramilitary, Saraya Awliya al-Dam, uses the social media app Telegram to spread their opinions? Source: "Profile: Saraya Awliya al-Dam"
- ALT0a:... that Iraqi paramilitary Saraya Awliya al-Dam has a Telegram account? Source: See ALT0
- ALT1:... that even though the Iraqi Shi'ite paramilitary Saraya Awliya al-Dam was created in August 2020, it carried out one of the largest attacks on U.S. forces in Iraq during the Biden administration a year later? Source: "Iraq's Resurgent Paramilitaries" and "Nineveh Plains Transitional Justice Report: February"
- ALT1a:... that only a year after being formed, paramilitary Saraya Awliya al-Dam carried out the most serious attack on U.S. forces in Iraq of Biden's presidency? Source: "Iraq's Resurgent Paramilitaries" and "'Wake up call': Deadly Iraq rocket attack puts pressure on US"

Hook eligibility:
- Cited:
- The article doesn't include the superlative that it's one of the largest attacks, it should do so - Interesting:
- Other problems: - ALT0 seems to imply that the militia primarily markets itself through telegram, which doesn't seem to be the case.
| QPQ: None required. |
Overall: 
@Dunutubble: The article seems fine—the hooks need a bit of work, but we're almost there! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:27, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

- The nominator hasn't responded despite pings and a talk page message. I'd recommend marking the nomination for closure if they don't respond soon. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 14:52, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
yeah, that's unfortunate. If anyone wants to adopt the nom, we can keep working, but Dunutubble, it's been a bit of time. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 18:14, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- It seems like a shame to let this nomination die. Theleekycauldron, please give me a bit of time. Sdrqaz (talk) 16:01, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
@Sdrqaz: time you may have. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 16:08, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- Theleekycauldron, I've added a citation to the claim that the attack was the largest since the Biden administration began and have proposed ALT0a and ALT1a, which should be "cleaner" versions. Thank you, Sdrqaz (talk) 16:23, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Sdrqaz:
Problems addressed and nomination approved—nice rescue! I changed ALT1a a little bit, but both ALT1a and ALT0a are approved. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 16:29, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
