DYK nomination of BLKBOK
Hello! Your submission of BLKBOK at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) at your nomination's entry and respond there at your earliest convenience. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! BlueMoonset (talk) 15:32, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
- Cbl62, please note that not only does this nomination have two QPQs due because it was posted during our backlog when the extra QPQ was required, but QPQs are now required to be posted along with the nomination—the week's delay allowed in the past is no longer allowed. The lack was overlooked previously, but now that it's been discovered, you'll need to act quickly. Please post your two QPQs right away; I'd hate to see this nomination closed when it's otherwise in good shape. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:32, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
