No worries -- the process at WP:DYK can be a touch on the Byzantine side! For future reference, if the hook is removed from the Suggestions page, it always means it has been moved to the template for use in the next update. (Although any other editor can move it back to the Suggestions page, with a note explaining their reason.) If an editor feels there are insuperable problems with the article, then it can be struck out or indented, but it won't be deleted. Regards, Espresso Addict 01:43, 15 September 2007 (UTC) reply

Updated DYK query On 15 September, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article The Encyclopædia of Ball Juggling, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

File copyright problem with File:UserIcosahedron.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:UserIcosahedron.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Graeme Bartlett ( talk) 11:02, 7 January 2011 (UTC) reply
