pulled and reopened by theleekycauldron (talk) 01:11, 2023 August 25
no further action needed, closed by Narutolovehinata5 (talk) 03:53, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
Note that the article had already been promoted and ran on the Main Page on August 25, and apart from a brief pull due to a since-deleted AFD, was able to run for most of its scheduled run. No further action is needed here, this is just the formal close.

Overall: 
@Legoktm and PK-WIKI: Nice work on this article. My preference is for ALT2 or ALT0 if the hooks remain unchanged. If ALT1 is used, I suggest revising it to clarify that the George Polk Awards are for journalism. Epicgenius (talk) 18:52, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
- @Legoktm, Epicgenius, Bruxton, and BorgQueen:
article was sent to AfD before it hit the Main Page, so I've pulled it. If it survives the AfD process, it can be rerun. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 01:12, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Theleekycauldron: the nominator has been indeffed as a sock and the AfD deleted. Could it be requeued now? Thanks! Legoktm (talk) 08:20, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Theleekycauldron: I suppose it can be featured again since it had been pulled and only restored hours later during its DYK run. What say you? BorgQueen (talk) 08:02, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
- @BorgQueen: hmm. I think that looking back, it might've been better to requeue it rather than putting it back on the Main Page, but I also think we generally rule that articles that make it through that much of their run don't get another chance. Pull something eight out of twelve hours in, for example, that's probably all it wrote. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 08:15, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
Marking it for the closure then. BorgQueen (talk) 21:53, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
