  • @Kavyansh.Singh: Thank you for your comment. This is actually is my first nomination, so I was a bit confused. Can you please make me understand what this prose portion mean? Rest I have fixed. LearnIndology (talk) 07:37, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @LearnIndology: Sure, the prose portion in an article includes the readable text in article except table of contents, section headers, image captions, block quotes, auxiliary sections such as "See also" and "References", citation callouts such as "", tags such as "[citation needed]", and so on. The minimum number of characters required for DYK is 1500 characters, and the article nominated has less than 1000 characters in prose portion. I think there is much that can be added to article. Kindly see my comment on your talk page. Also, the hook can be modified to make it more interesting. Thankyou!! Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 08:23, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Kavyansh.Singh: Thank you for your help. I have expanded the article. LearnIndology (talk) 10:13, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @LearnIndology: Hi, please note that most of the information from the "dance" and "cuisine" section was directly copied from sources. Kindly summarize the copied data in order to prevent your edit from being flagged a likely copyright violation. I have also expanded the article and made some changes. The article is now long enough. I suggest to rephrase the hook as it doesn't seems engaging. I suggest the following hook "... that the culture of Ladakh is noted to be similar to Tibetan culture in many aspects like language, dance forms and festivals." Source: [1] Rest is fine.

  • Just a note that some of the content was copied from Ladakh#Culture, and this will need to be excluded when calculating the prose size (see WP:DYK#Eligibility criteria: 1b and 2b). – Uanfala (talk) 14:05, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @LearnIndology: @Uanfala: The DYK Check tool calculated 4499 characters from "readable prose". After calculating only the content which was not copied from any Wikipedia article, it calculates to a total of 2383 characters, which is relatively low but adequate for an DYK. The only issue remains is that the hook doesn't seems engaging and needs to be rephrased. Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 04:56, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Kavyansh.Singh: Thank you for the suggestion, I have rephrased the hook. LearnIndology (talk) 14:54, 19 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article is new enough and long enough. Some of the content was directly copied from external sources and Wikipedia articles, which was further summarized and some content was deleted. The article is above 1500 characters even after excluding the copied content. The hook is under 200 characters, is interesting and cited. QPQ not required as it is user's first DYK. Good to go.

  • @TrangaBellam: Hi, thanks your your comments. Well, I have removed the content from article which was directly copied from sources and other Wikipedia pages, which I have disclosed above by saying that I have expanded and made necessary changes to the article. The changes were also notified to the nominator and were made only after I started reviewing the hook. I request you to again review this DYK hook as per guidelines as you are not associated with the article, which would be more appropriate. Thanks!

    I am not really aware about DYK rules etc but the article looks fine (though I am not really any expert on Ladakh). I commented on the apparent COI, since it seemed a tad strange. Nothing adversarial. TrangaBellam (talk) 06:40, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Khatok Chemo is listed as a dance in the dance action. Might also be true, but some clarification would be good Elinruby (talk) 10:20, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
