DYK for Typhoon Thelma (1977)
[edit]
On 5 November 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Typhoon Thelma (1977), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that 1977's Typhoon Thelma was the most destructive event in Taiwan since World War II? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Typhoon Thelma (1977). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Typhoon Thelma (1977)), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

List of deaths as a result of Cyclone Tracy
[edit]It seems you closed this as a keep (withdrawn), which is valid to do since you were the nominator, but I was about to try to vote delete, so I'm wondering if you wouldn't be willing to revert that close. I think this should be deleted, and it was open for such a short time and had only been in the DS sorting for lists even less, that I think more participation would be valuable. Thanks, 35.139.154.158 (talk) 14:22, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- Eh, ok. Tavantius (talk) 14:27, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

"Battle of Biar Bet (1965)" is clearly not a BLP. What was the point of this decline? C F A 💬 15:23, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- I use that choice as despite stating that it's a BLP, the actual content is more useful than the standard decline. Tavantius (talk) 15:26, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- There is no "minimum standard for inline citations" unless the statement is likely to be challenged, is a direct quote, or pertains to living people. The page linked is WP:MINREF which explains this. C F A 💬 15:32, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
