A fact from Sarah Gibson (composer) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 8 August 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
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: (Sorry for a misclick when filling the template that published it unfinished.) This article, begun by me and improved by many, found already interest when in the RD section. Can we say a bit more? The hook would be true on 8 August, otherwise would need rephrasing such as "is scheduled to be played" or "was played". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:34, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Overall: Thank you to all three people who contributed to this article, and completed it so efficiently after Gibson's untimely death. She deserves this recognition.
I carried out a minor copyedit in the article; that does not affect the DYK review. Content is unchanged.
Earwig only finds proper names, so no problem there.
Hook is cited with three inline citations, following the relevant sentences in the article.
I have added here, the image which is mentioned in the hook.
@Gerda Arendt, ForsythiaJo, CurryTime7-24, and Storye book: I was about to promote this before I realised that there have been some major changes. Given the prep for the 8 August is the next in the queue these would need to be updated and reviewed quickly if we are to meet the special occasion request. Particular issues I spotted:
Hook facts are not cited at the end of sentences, as described in WP:DYKHFC, e.g. the fact of the duo being formed or the inspiration of warp & weft need citations at the end of the sentences giving these facts.
@CSJJ104: Your first bullet point is resolved. There are now citations next to those two facts.
If citations cannot be found for the list of works in time, then I suggest that the list be put on the talk page (so it is not forgotten). It can partly or fully be returned to the article when citations are found. That should clear the way for a DYK on the requested date. Storye book (talk) 19:48, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The works were added after the approval. I told one editor who added to add references for DYK purposes. Only now did I see that more works were added by a different editor. I told them the same. I agree with Storye book. We could also comment out what is not referenced. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:33, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've removed the works list. It's in the history, it can be restored with references or a good reason why they aren't necessary.--Launchballer23:35, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am intending to promote this but upon checking the sources for the hook the citation for the last line in the Career section does not seem to cover the whole sentence. From the source it could, for example, be that both pieces were intended to be played. I have removed the uncited content for this reason. CSJJ104 (talk) 00:35, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
