Meja massacre
- ... that the Meja massacre, in which 500 Kosovo Albanian civilians were executed, is regarded as the largest massacre of the Kosovo War?
Created by Arianit ( talk). Nominated by ZjarriRrethues ( talk) at 17:48, 4 April 2013 (UTC).

- I hadn't noticed that the article was written about 10 days ago, so I leave it to the admins to review or close it.-- — ZjarriRrethues — talk 18:01, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
- Big deal so what? DYK has to be interesting not just a promotion campaign. Nobody knows the massacre and nobody has heard of Meja, compared to Srebrenica. Even Račak despite the qualms from all sides is a better known place and episode than this. Every war will have its biggest massacre but unless that chapter is known, it plus its figure mean nothing. Evlekis (Евлекис) ( argue) 19:47, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
- Major approval of the idea! Evlekis your rationale is sorry to say poor. Of course nobody until recently knew the Meja massacre because there wasn't much information on it. Now editors here have brought it to attention for Wikipedians and backed up by hard sources. The whole aim of Did You Know is to uplift new articles which have increased drasticly in size in a short space. And the Kosovo war is a major storyline which the whole world knows so it is only right that readers should be told which was it's biggest massacre. Keithstanton ( talk) 08:39, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
- DYK rule 1.1 states that "a "new" article is no more than five days old, and may not consist of text spun off from a pre-existing article." This article was created by Arianit on March 25. So looks like you missed the deadline, April 1st. -- Esemono ( talk) 06:47, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
