  • Reviewed: will do later Jamai Palace
  • Comment: In ALT0 using just "Republic Square" instead of "a square honouring a republic" is also an option.

  • The statement is in the article, I'm assuming good faith on the translation. Article is new enough, long enough, and policy compliant. Image is free and in the article. Article is not a COPYVIO. A QPQ still needs to be provided. Hog Farm (talk) 19:37, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Hog Farm: Thanks for the review! I did the QPQ (Jamai Palace) and added some more details to the article (counter-arguments against the statue's removal). Perhaps once it is approved this DYK can be promoted to the main page on 5 August 2020, which would be the 129th anniversary of the statue's installation in the square? It would be just over the six week maximum (5 August is 6 weeks and 6 days from today to be exact). If this is deemed to be too long I have no problems with promoting it on any other day.

  • - QPQ done now, and the updated version of the article is still policy compliant. I can't approve it myself more than 6 weeks out, but if you request it at WT:DYK, you might be able to get a waiver for it. I'd support a waiver request if it was brought there.
