  • Striking through other ALTS, this nomination is ready to be reviewed. Nathan121212 (talk) 13:52, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Note I have added Afri Twin by User:HelenOnline to this nomination. I hope I have adjusted this template accordingly. The following was suggested by HelenOnline:
  • ALT4: ... that Tafelberg School is one of over 250 schools in the United Kingdom and South Africa linked with overseas schools for mutual benefit via Afri Twin? Nathan121212 (talk) 13:54, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
  • Note: I've fixed the new DYKmake credit, added a DYKnom, and the Afri Twin article history link is also now available. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:39, 20 September 2014 (UTC)
  • Note: I have (hopefully) made some improvements to Tafelberg School nominated by Nathan121212. @Nathan121212: I could not find sources for some content relating to the school's early history. Please add sources where indicated in the article otherwise I think the unsourced content should be removed which is not too serious as it is not a lot of text and we can work around it.

  • @HelenOnline: I'm also struggling to find sources for that info. I came up with the year by seeing the age of the school in one of the articles and deducting that from the date the source article was written. That needs to be confirmed though. That text may need to be removed for the purpose of this DYK nomination. Nathan121212 (talk) 15:11, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
  • OK thanks, I found that source (note the article date was two years out in the citation) and have incorporated it into the article. HelenOnline 17:02, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
  • Note I would like to propose ALT5 elaborating on the school as otherwise I think the hook is unlikely to attract interest in that particular article, and perhaps it will also attract a reviewer with an interest in the subject:
  • ALT5: ... that Tafelberg School for children with special learning needs is one of over 250 schools in Europe and South Africa linked for mutual benefit via Afri Twin? HelenOnline 10:31, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

FYI, I reformatted the references, but did not change the substance of the content. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 22:56, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

  • These two articles are new enough and long enough. Going for ALT5 which has inline citations for its facts in one or both articles. I found no neutrality or close paraphrasing issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:05, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
  • I added the ALT5 hook fact and citation to Tafelberg School, per DYK rules. I also corrected the information in the hook based on the source. Yoninah (talk) 21:19, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
