  • I will review Bruxton (talk) 22:26, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Article has been five times expanded since April 7, 2022. We are waiting on QPQ (this is your fifteenth dyk). Hook ALT0 is referenced and interesting. The first paragraph of the career section is not cited. I do wonder if the pedigree should be referenced? I also wonder if a non-free picture can be added - just as we do for deceased people. I do not find copyright violations and the article is neutral. Bruxton (talk) 22:56, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you Bruxton, I will get on it. This is very nice. I am working on my QPQ now. I will get these things done. I agree the pedigree should be sourced; I usually do. I must have lost that citation when doing some editing so will get that back. I am not sure it has been long enough for a fair use rationale for his picture, but I know who to ask. It would be nice; he was a beautiful horse. Thanks!
    Reviewed QPQ --> Template:Did you know nominations/Kuala Langat North Forest Reserve
    Bruxton Hi, I completed the QPQ. Everything you asked for should be done now. Thanks again! p.s. Is there a template for the talk page I need to do to tell the editor I completed their QPQ? Or is notification with a ping on their template enough? dawnleelynn(talk) 03:21, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Dawnleelynn: Looks like the page is in order now, thanks for the rapid fixes. No notification is needed. But they may appreciate a note on their talk page in case they are not watching the page. I have been reading the requirements for a non-free photo, and while it does not specifically address animaals, if we apply the rationale to people: subject is deceased so no free photo can be created, and none are known to exist. I searched Flickr and other places and found no free photos. It seems like the non-free rationale would be ok (Just uploaded locally and just for the article not for the DYK). If I am incorrect I hope someone tells me before I plow forward. Bruxton (talk) 14:27, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Bruxton Ok, I have created several logo images before. I have also added some person and bull images to some articles. What were you thinking to do next? I know where there are several pictures of the horse. Some of him, some with his owner. dawnleelynn(talk) 14:44, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Bruxton and Dawnleelynn: I proposed an ALT0a, I thought it was too good to pass up. Fine to go with something else, but let me know :) theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/they) 22:40, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Theleekycauldron There was no consensus for the quirky hook to be used on the DYK talk page. What do you suggest? SL93 (talk) 17:52, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
go with ALT0, it's a solid hook. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/they) 18:25, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
