ProjectThis page does not require a rating on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.

Did You Know? (DYK) is a feature on Wikipedia's Main Page that has "teasers" to new and recently expanded content.

Creating new articles of high importance and start quality and nominating them for DYK is a goal of this WikiProject.

  • Articles accepted for DYK are linked from the Main Page, encouraging other editors to jump in and contribute to articles within the scope of our project.
  • Writing well-cited articles about 1500-2000 characters in length is a great way for new editors to get used to working in Wikipedia.
  • Once you nominate an article for DYK (or have someone else nominate it for you, if the process seems overwhelming), some of the best editors in Wikipedia will see your article and help you improve it. Working in collaboration with other Wikipedians inside and outside of our project is one of the advantages of editing Wikipedia.
  • Some day, we will want a project Portal, and most portals have a section full of past DYK articles in their project area.
