  •   New enough and long enough. No QPQ needed (fewer than 5 credits). The hook is intriguing but is overlong; it must come down to fewer than 200 characters. Sourcing looks OK, assuming good faith on all the Lithuanian content. The article could stand a copyedit (consider requesting one at WP:GOCE), and the phrase "national attributes" is unidiomatic and awkward (we would say "national symbols"). I'd like to see this copyedited before appearing at DYK, so Pofka, I am holding this DYK for a hook that is shorter and within guidelines and for a copyedit of the page. I am going to propose a hook as well in the same vein. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 02:50, 2 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Sammi Brie: I modified phrase "national attributes" to "national symbols" in the article and I agree with such modification. I believe that the political repressions part is equally important with the removal of the Lithuanian national symbols. I proposed my suggestion for modification (198 characters) below. I nominated the article for copyediting (see: Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Requests#Lithuanian People's Army). -- Pofka (talk) 18:57, 3 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Sammi Brie: Thanks, I agree with your modification from "repressions" to "repression". The article is nearly entirely based on articles of the Visuotinė lietuvių enciklopedija and Genocide and Resistance Research Centre of Lithuania. -- Pofka (talk) 17:24, 8 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
