  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/London's Brilliant Parade

Created by Cunard (talk). Self-nominated at 09:30, 24 February 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/1Point3Acres; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

• The hook doesn’t work for an international audience. Why would readers outside the US know what the CDC is? Schwede66 17:29, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Here is an alternative hook with the acronym spelled out:

  ALT1: ... that the Chinese-language forum 1Point3Acres created a COVID-19 tracker that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention used?

• I will review. Cielquiparle (talk) 16:00, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting article. Nominated on the same day it was created, more than long enough at 4607 characters. Appears well sourced with good cross-section of sources, though I would flag to Cunard that the very first source cited appears to link to the wrong article. AGF on non-English sources. FWIW, Earwig says "Violation Unlikely"; there is just one rather high match at 35.1% which is the NIH website, but that is due to a direct quote that is cited appropriately. Neutrally worded; includes both positive and critical reception of CovidNet. QPQ is done. This leaves the hook, which has been reworded as ALT1. I would propose a slight tweak to that below:

• ALT1a: ... that the Chinese-language forum 1Point3Acres created a COVID-19 tracker used by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention?

ALT1a is essentially the same as ALT1, so I will go ahead and approve this. Cielquiparle (talk) 16:24, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Thank you for the review and catching the incorrect link, Cielquiparle (talk · contribs)! I've fixed the link. I agree that ALT1a is better than ALT1. Cunard (talk) 06:31, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
