Template talk:DYK checklist

Template giving incorrect readings for plagiarism

The template seems to be giving an incorrect reading for the plagiarism parameter. See Template:Did you know nominations/Murder of Michael Nigg. I put y to indicate the article is free of plagerism or close paraphrasing, but it outputs a blue ?. See below too. ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 14:42, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

Image eligibility:

• Freely licensed: - na
• Used in article: - NA
• Clear at 100px: - NA

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Lorem Ipsum lorem ipsum. ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 14:42, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

"plagarismfree" parameter

This parameter is misspelled, so it should be deprecated. Epic Genius (talk) 02:15, 4 October 2015 (UTC)

Aaargh!

What a hideous way of reviewing nominations! Reviews, in my mind, should be in continuous prose and have been since I started nominating articles two years ago. Why the inexplicable lurch?--Launchballer 08:10, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

I don't mind having a simple checklist, but why after all these years does it still not indent correctly instead of lying flush on the left side of the page? — LlywelynII 22:53, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

How do you mean?--Launchballer 05:01, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

Typo

I am a new DYK reviewer and find this template helpful so I don't forget anything. Just wanted to point out the template gives Hook eligiblity instead of Hook eligibility. Cheers, Mujinga (talk) 10:50, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

@Mujinga: Sharp eye!  Fixed with this edit. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 04:20, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Unable to give additional comments next to green checks

When I tried using this template at Template:Did you know nominations/San Nicolò all'Arena, Verona, I wanted to be able to give some additional comments on items that were approved, but this template doesn't seem able to let me do so without adding x's. It'd be nice if this were a little more flexible. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 04:16, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Small thing

@Sdkb: any way the equals signs in the examples could be on the same column, instead of some of them being slightly farther away? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:53, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

"Other problems"

Putting a check mark after "Other problems" makes it look like there are other problems. Of course common sense tells me it means that there are actually no other problems, but I think it would be more logical if it actually said "No other problems: "

Edit request

On lines 174 and 178, please change "New Enough" and "Long Enough" to sentence case, per MOS:SENTENCECAPS. — MaterialWorks 01:32, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
