Does not meet newness criteria
Codrinb, this article was nominated thirty-four days after it was moved to mainspace, which is far too late. Articles need to be new, newly moved to mainspace, newly expanded five times, or newly made a Good Article, and for DYK, the definition of "new" is within the past seven days. When new creators are involved, we have a bit of flex, but that's measured in a few days, not a few weeks. Regrettably, the nomination does not qualify for DYK; at this point, its only real chance would be to become a Good Article and then be nominated, and the article needs a significant amount of work before it meets the
Good article criteria.

Understood. I only got around to nominate it now after copy-editing a bit. The author is new to Wikipedia and didn't know about the DYK process. I'll try to get it to GA then. Thanks.
