The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Comment: Note that I have replaced "abused children, victims of natural disasters, street children, drug addicts and commercial sex workers, among others" in the article and citation with "underprivileged communities" for the DYK.
Overall: Article meets eligibility criteria for length (tad short, but, crisp) and newness. Adequately sourced. Copyvio checks out good. Tone is neutral. Sourcing for ALT0 looks good. Sourcing for ALT1 looks good. Assuming that the nominator has less than 5 submissions and hence does not need a QPQ as of yet. Please keep me honest, since, I know that the nominator does have a few submissions through the pipeline. Regarding substitution of the string of text with underprivileged, see if you can substitute it with a different word. Ktin (talk) 17:11, 2 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ktin, This was my third nomination and since I've made a fourth nomination as well, any more submissions after this would require a QPQ from me. Regarding the substitution, I could use "marginalised people" or "deprived communities" or perhaps shorten it by omitting part of the string to something like "abused children, drug addicts, sex workers and others". Which one would you prefer? Tayi ArajakateTalk13:12, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
