A fact from Talim (textiles) appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 9 February 2023 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Talim encodes intricate patterns for
Kashmir shawls and carpets?
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Article was created on the 16th, so is new enough. At ~2700 characters, it is long enough and reads neutrally. Quite a lot of expansion of the article is available, considering the crowding of sources, but that can be a future endeavor. The hook is the confusing part. There's no direct language about a coded language or secret language in the article, including where the given source is used. And since the hook needs to have said citation in the same sentence it is used in, that's something that needs to be fixed before this nomination can be approved. Other than that, I think the conciseness of Alt1 is better. And the QPQ has been done. The only thing waiting here is to have the hook info and reference actually directly used in the article in some manner. Can you fix that,

I don't think Alt2 is necessary. The text doesn't have to be exactly what's used in the article, just close enough and with the in-line citations. So I still think Alt1 is valid and is more interesting. Are you okay with that?
