Created by Evrik (talk) and Reidgreg (talk). Self-nominated at 03:43, 30 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Holy door (Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Adding @Reidgreg: to this nomination. --evrik ^(talk) 22:06, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I have submitted these to the GOCE. Please hold off on reviewing these until that review is complete. --evrik ^(talk) 18:09, 30 April 2023 (UTC) All done[reply]
Comment once approved, can this be held until July 25? --evrik ^(talk) 18:09, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Qualifying for July 25 will first depend on (1) the reviewer(s) determining whether the hook is 'sufficiently special' for that date and that running it would not cause neutrality problems (see WP:SOHA for more information), and (2) getting consensus to extend the 'newness' requirement beyond six weeks, for which I opened a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Did you know#Requested extension for special occasion hook. – Reidgreg (talk) 15:21, 6 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that the discussion was archived without a response. Does this count as a soft decline of the special occasion request? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 13:55, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the lack of objection was a tacit approval. BTW, the point is moot until the articles are reviewed. --evrik ^(talk) 14:04, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I asked Theleekycauldron about this off-wiki and it doesn't seem to be the case: they said that for an IAR request to be granted, there has to be an explicit approval, rather than a lack of disapproval. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 23:10, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Discussions off-wiki aren't policy ... in any case, we're currently sitting at nine weeks. If this sits for three more week, it will be at six weeks. --evrik ^(talk) 01:24, 22 May 2023 (UTC):[reply]

Firstly, we go by nomination date and not review date, so even if we wait three weeks, the request cannot be granted without an explicit discussion that gives an IAR exemption. Secondly, for an IAR request to be granted, there has to be explicit approval. "Silence means approval" is not how things work on Wikipedia. In any case this probably should run as a regular, non-special occasion hook instead. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 14:21, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

perhaps we should give this a rest for now – nomination awaits full review anyway. I'll also go ahead and throw in my support for the special occasion and associated exemption – if WT:DYK isn't interested, a small local consensus should suffice. If NLH5 and the reviewer agree, that's more than enough. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 15:11, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Overall: - I see no issues and have no objections to proposed front-page date etc. Let me know if should be doing something else to move this through otherwise thanks everybody and cheers. jengod (talk) 03:06, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure why people are having policy discussions off-wiki, as they don't carry any weight here. I'll go ahead and promote this for July 25. Edge3 (talk) 16:05, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
