STOP! BEFORE YOU ADD A NEW ITEM, PLEASE READ THESE NOTES: |
|||
*This is NOT a general trivia section. |
|||
*This section is only for items that have been listed on "NEW PAGES" in the last 120 hours |
|||
*The title of the new article should be '''BOLD''' and placed on TOP as the FIRST ITEM. |
|||
*Generally limited to SIX items, but whatever the case - just make sure it fits whatever else is on the page at that time. Use your common sense. |
|||
*NO STUBS (moreover, try to find new articles that are 1,500+ bytes in size) |
|||
*Try to pick articles that are ORIGINAL to Wikipedia (not 1911 or other data sources) and that are INTERESTING. |
|||
*The "Did you know?" fact must be mentioned in the article. |
|||
*Images should be sized to 100px or SMALLER. |
|||
*Do not use fair-use images. Instead, find a related free image (PD, GFDL, CC etc.) as an alternative. |
|||
--> |
|||

|||
<center><big> |
|||
*See how this template appears on both [{{fullurl:Wikipedia:Main_Page_alternative_(Next_DYK)|action=purge}} today's Main Page] and [{{fullurl:Wikipedia:Main_Page_alternative_(Tomorrow_and_Next_DYK)|action=purge}} tomorrow's Main Page].</big> |

==Credits== |
|||
<div id="credits">This space is to credit the creators/nominators of the items in this Did you know/Next update template that in fact appear on the Main Page. If you replace or remove an item from the above template before it appears on the Main Page, make sure to re-add the hook to [[Template talk:Did you know]] at the '''correct date of creation/expansion''' (find it in the history) along with credits, and preferably add a note explaining why you did so. |

To be given out when hooks reach [[Main Page]]: |
|||
*'''Article talk page:''' ''({{tl|dyktalk}})'' <tt><nowiki>{{dyktalk|</nowiki>{{CURRENTDAY}} {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}|{{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></tt> (check if small style templates in use, if so add small=yes parm) |
|||
*'''Article creator/expander's talk page:''' ''({{tl|UpdatedDYK}})'' <tt><nowiki>{{subst:UpdatedDYK|</nowiki>{{CURRENTDAY}} {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}|{{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>|Article name}} --~~~~</nowiki></tt> |

|||
:Note that portal notifications are only done if you have taken the trouble to add the DYK hook to a relevant portal, which is entirely optional. The other notifications must be done before the "Next update" page can be reset. |
|||
==Images== |
|||
*Don't forget to add an ''<nowiki>{{mprotected}}</nowiki>'' notice to the image description page (or ''<nowiki>{{C-uploaded}}</nowiki>'' '''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== |
|||
*After copying DYK entries to [[Template:Did you know]], please do the following: |
|||
# Purge the front page cache to make sure the new entries appear; |
|||
# Reset the DYK time; |
|||
# Delete the previous image (if c-uploaded from commons) or unprotect and remove the tag (if m-protected); |
|||
# 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). |
|||
# If you have time, please do the credits for the hooks just promoted (see "Credits" section above). |
