Just dropping a note that I love this comparison you made, and might refer to it in future conflicts of this nature. Funcrunch (talk) 21:52, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article Chippendales Audition you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Chippendales Audition for comments about the article, and Talk:Chippendales Audition/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

On 12 July 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Les Avariés, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Les Avariés was temporarily banned in England and France for its focus on syphilis? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Les Avariés. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Les Avariés), 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.
