@Tombah: New enough and long enough. Nominator is QPQ exempt. The hook is decently interesting given the topic, but it must be shortened (it is 219 characters). Five paragraphs are missing citations—at DYK, every paragraph must end in an inline citation. The hook sources and fact do check out, so an alternative formulation of the fact above would be acceptable. The citations must be fixed and a new hook must be proposed. Ping me when this is done.

Hi @Sammi Brie:. Great thanks! I've just added the missing citations, and here's a shorter hook: let me know if another shortening is needed :) Tombah (talk) 09:16, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

ALT1: ... that Khirbet el-'Ormeh is identified with biblical Arumah, mentioned in Judges as where Abimelech, king of Shechem and son of judge Gideon, resided?

(Refactored the comment with hook as well) ALT1 is long enough, and the rest of my review stands. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 22:43, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

I have pulled and reverted the close on this nomination, per ongoing discussion at WT:DYK — Maile (talk) 13:42, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- Superseding previous tick, since there are issues enough to pull the nomination from prep. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:12, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
@Maile66 and BlueMoonset: Is there still any hope of this running with changes to the article or is it better to close this nomination? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 12:57, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

@Narutolovehinata5, BlueMoonset, and Tombah: It still has multiple dispute tags on it, so it can't be promoted that way. I leave it to the judgement of BlueMoonset about if we keep this open. It's only been out there less than 2 months, but I just don't know how long we leave a nomination open. — Maile (talk) 14:22, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

The nominator hasn't edited since the 14th and issues have remained unaddressed. I don't really see the article being ready for DYK anytime soon and so I'm marking the nomination for closure. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 16:01, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

I would be fine with this. The issue that pulled this one off DYK was not something I could have caught and is honestly why I tend to shun reviewing PIA topics. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 03:33, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
