- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Baldwin V of Jerusalem
- Comment: 4th of 4 QPQs for this nomination

Created by TonyTheTiger (talk). Self-nominated at 22:51, 25 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Olivia Olson (basketball); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Interesting article. No copyright problems and the hook is mentioned in the intro and with citations in the body of the article. Good to go. - Toadboy123 (talk) 01:11, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- P.S. I wanted to create this article quickly so I could post this. I wasn't thinking about a potential April 2 date request, which is almost 10 weeks (greater than the usual 6 week date request max). I'm just saying it would not be bad if this didn't get put on the main page until April 2.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:54, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

High School visits

She claims to have visited Michigan. Michigan State, Notre Dame, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa and Iowa State. Obviously, they weren't all official visits. However, this source does not seem to be an WP:RS. Not included in article until presented in a legitimate source.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:36, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Tony I am OlifanofmrTennant I will be reviewing this. I am taking this up because I don't want to burdan the participants of the GA Backlog with your mass nominations which have reportedly subpar. I hope this one is different and you can pass it. Unfortunetly you have been discalified from the WikiCup luckily for me you were one space above me so moving up. Cool I will know look at the article

After reading the article I have now determined that the article is far from GA quality its barely C. Fails on scope, very little on her personal life and National team career, seemingly a fourth of the sources being primary sources from either interviews, or the school she attends or her twitter.
