سانچہ:Did you know/Queue/3

NOTE: Since on average about 50% of hooks on the suggestions page are U.S. related, it is usually appropriate to have roughly half the hooks in any given update on U.S. topics. Thanks.

Images

• Don't forget to add an {{mprotected}} notice to the image description page (or {{C-uploaded}} plus a copy of the author attribution and the licence tag if you have uploaded a temporary copy from Commons).

After posting the new update

• Note: This is the old manual method. For updates copied to the bot queue, the bot currently automates all of the following except steps 3 and 5.

• After copying DYK entries to Template:Did you know, please do the following:

1. Purge the cache of the Main Page to make sure the new entries appear;
2. Reset the DYK time;
3. Delete the previous image (if c-uploaded from commons) or unprotect and remove the tag (if m-protected);
4. Copy the previous set of hooks (not the new set just promoted to the front page) to Wikipedia:Recent additions. Be sure to copy the final revision of the set (should be the last diff on the T:DYK page before your update).
5. If you have time, please do the credits for the hooks just promoted (see "Credits" section above).
