... that Wikipedia editors wrote over 40,000 words arguing over a single letter? Source: https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/wikipedia-star-trek-into-darkness-capitalization/
- ALT0a: ... that Wikipedia editors wrote over 40,000 words arguing over an 'i'?
- ALT1: ... that Wikipedia editors wrote over 40,000 words arguing whether the "I" in Star Trek Into Darkness should be capitalized?

Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Nicolas Mahler
Comment: I prefer ALT0 or ALT0a—I'm going to improve the article in a little bit but it shouldn't affect the review too much.

Overall: This is a pretty lulzy article. I am a little concerned that, of five sources, one of them is a Wikipedia article -- it's clearly WP:ABOUTSELF, but I'm not sure what current consensus is about this specific sort of navel-gazing. I would appreciate if someone else could give some guidance here. jp×g 01:50, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

@JPxG: Thanks for the speedy review! I found this from WP:CIRCULAR: An exception is allowed when Wikipedia itself is being discussed in the article, which may cite an article, guideline, discussion, statistic, or other content from Wikipedia (or a sister project) to support a statement about Wikipedia. Does that answer your question? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 02:20, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, that'll work. Would it not be more proper to link to a specific revision, though? jp×g 02:34, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

@JPxG: Agreed—I swapped out the link. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 03:49, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

Promoting the main hook to Prep 5. The consensus of the deletion discussion was to keep this article. There is no discussion on the talk page about any possible merge, so it meets the criteria to be featured on DYK. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 16:32, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
