Created by Isthistwisted (talk). Self-nominated at 22:12, 5 July 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Masonjoany; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• Will review. Longhornsg (talk) 00:17, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
• Interesting article and meets DYK eligibility requirements. QPQ done. While the picture in the hook is is free, the other article is copyrighted and should be deleted. There are some good sources, but the article also includes travel agency and other promotional sources that do not meet WP:RS and should be deleted or replaced. Made small typographic updates to the hook. Longhornsg (talk) 00:34, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

• The copyrighted image is in process with the VRT thanks to the photographer giving permission. I'll improve sources. Thanks! Isthistwisted (talk) 01:25, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

• Removed the pending image in the interim. Isthistwisted (talk) 04:29, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Longhornsg: As the nominator of the article used as a QPQ, I'm not sure this qualifies as a review. It's a very brief statement that mostly suggests a hook change (where the change in question is actually inaccurate). I'm certainly still awaiting a full review.

Damn girl that's not nice... in any case this is my first DYK submission and as such I don't believe a QPQ is required. Sorry my comment was unhelpful! Isthistwisted (talk) 06:04, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

@Isthistwisted:, with the changes, the article doesn't meet DYK length requirements. Also still citing the website of Jehovah's Witnesses, which I'm not sure is a WP:RS on the subject. Anything else we can find? Remaining image is free. Longhornsg (talk) 05:13, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

@Longhornsg: I found a better, academic source, and the length is now back above DYK requirements. Isthistwisted (talk) 05:31, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

Did a final round of edits, good to go. I think the apocryphal story isn't additive and can be removed, but leave that up to editor discretion. Longhornsg (talk) 18:15, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
