DYK for It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water

On 13 April 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water explores the theme of water and was inspired by Phil Elverum's visits to the ocean? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water), 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.

The article It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water for comments about the article, and Talk:It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water/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.

Question from Minds United Football Club (22:50, 18 April 2023)

Hi, I wanted to create a page for our football club so that people can find about our history . Can you advise me how to do this ? --Minds United Football Club (talk) 22:50, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

@Minds United Football Club: Hi, Minds United Football Club. Firstly, as you've hopefully seen on your talk page, your username violates Wikipedia's username policy and must be changed (instructions here). It is strongly discouraged to write an article about yourself due to the many biases this introduces. Please carefully read Wikipedia's page on conflict of interests. A conflict of interest—which you have—must be declared; see this page on how to do so. One way is by putting the text "{{UserboxCOI}}" on your user page in source mode.
If you still want to write an article about the club, it must be created through Wikipedia:Articles for Creation. At Articles for Creation, you submit a draft for review, and it is looked over and given feedback, with the possibility of being published as a real article. Your article must strictly conform to Wikipedia's policies on biographies of living people, verifiability, and most importantly neutrality. Your article will not be accepted if the club fails Wikipedia's notability guidline. In short, the club must have significant coverage in multiple, reliable, secondary sources. If little to no sources exist on the club, it will never be accepted as an article.
Thank you for reading, please reply if you have any more questions or concerns. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 01:04, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
