- Reviewed: First DYK nomination, not required
Created by Alivardi (talk). Self-nominated at 21:18, 1 October 2020 (UTC).
This is my first QPQ, so it may be worth someone checking my review. Thanks!
- Article: Created within seven days, is long enough (1426 prose words >> 1500 characters), and meets policy (copyvio checked via Earwig's Copyvio Detector, appears neutral, and has quite solid academic citations). Some of the citations are non-English, but all the English sources I checked are of quite high quality, and the cited statement for the hook is backed up by an English academic text. I feel comfortable to AGF on the non-English sources for the purpose of this DYK, and this does not affect the hook statement, which is supported by a high-quality English academic source.
- Hook: less than 200 characters, intriguing, backed up by the original source and in the article, and unrelated to living people. Formatting looks good.
- QPQ: unnecessary, as this is a first submission. Jlevi (talk) 02:29, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
- Comment: Perhaps hold for November and Wikipedia Asian Month? --evrik (talk) 03:24, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you for the review and yeah postponing until Asian Month sounds like a good idea. Do you know how I would go about doing so?

I've moved it to the November holding area. But the Notable burials section is completely unsourced, which does not meet Rule D2. Yoninah (talk) 19:08, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: I was trying to use a similar format to this article, but I guess it wasn't the best example to follow. I've now added the citations. Thanks for the heads up.
