... that not only Stsiapan Putsila, but also the judge who refused to extradite him to

Article is new enough, long enough, notable, neutral, and the hook is supported in the article. Hook needs to be written more elegantly, without typos, and with proper boldface and inline link. Nominator needs to review another DYK nomination. ALT1: ... that not only Stsiapan Putsila, but also the judge who refused to extradite him to

The nominator is exempt from reviewing a nomination, having only one previous DYK credit. —

Yes, this sounds a lot better. Thank You for the improvement!--

Query to
KastusK,
SL93, and
theleekycauldron: First, the image cannot be used for DYK because it is no longer in the linked article. Next, how do we know that this is indeed a photo of Stsiapan Putsila? There's nothing on the Wikimedia Commons page metadata or file name to indicate that this is indeed him, nor is he identified (that I or Google Translate can see) on the YouTube being used for the image, and the caption on this nomination isn't filled in. These issues will need to be addressed before the nomination can proceed.

BlueMoonset I thought that nothing had to be addressed because the image wouldn't be used.
SL93 (
talk) 12:46, 16 March 2022 (UTC)reply
SL93, since the nomination was approved, that means the image was approved for use, and you have to assume it can be used, especially if the review doesn't recommend against use. (The review really ought to have explicitly mentioned the image.)
theleekycauldron, there's no guarantee that you will be the one doing the promotion, and I've seen images I wouldn't have promoted being put in lead hook positions.

That's great and all, but I have this on my watchlist to follow up on and there are barely any prep builders. Honestly, I'm going to discount your lecture in this case.

I changed the image. Now it is a photograph from the original NEXTA website.--
