In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

DYK for Deep Cut Gardens

edit

On 17 October 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Deep Cut Gardens, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Deep Cut Gardens in New Jersey contains a stone replica of Mount Vesuvius that once erupted smoke at the behest of mobster Vito Genovese? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Deep Cut Gardens. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Deep Cut Gardens), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
