this might still be DYK eligible, if it's nominated soon

This article should be eligible for appearing on the main page as a "Did you know" entry, if it is nominated it soon; it is supposed to be nominated within 5 days of being created or significantly (5x) expanded.

The instructions for nominating it are at Template talk:Did you know. Basically, all you need to do is take this code if you created a new article:

{{NewDYKnom| article= | hook=... that ? | status=new | author=  }}

or this code if you expanded it

{{NewDYKnom| article= | hook=... that ? | status=expanded | author= }}

and write the hook, a concise and interesting bit of info from the article beginning with "... that" and ending with a question mark. The info from the hook has to be present in the article and supported (in the article) with a citation. Someone will double-check to make sure the source says what it's claimed to say.

Once you've come up with a hook, fill in your username as the author and fill the title of the article, then add the above code, including your hook following the "hook=" part, to the top of the appropriate section for the day the article was started on the DYK template talk page. The code will produce an entry formatted like the others. After that, just keep an eye on the entry; if anyone brings up an issue with it, try to address it. I'll keep an eye out as well. If everything goes well, it will appear on the Main Page for several hours a few days from now.

Peer Editing notes

• Hey guys! You're article looks great so far! I have one suggestion for now: you might want to add an "External Links" section to the bottom where you can add useful/pertinent websites and links. Amybekah (talk) 02:48, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

• Wow! This article is super detailed and informative! Perhaps you can add some images of the waste/recycling/compost bins or the recycling pick-up truck to give this article some eye candy :) Otherwise everything looks great and I'll try to make some edits if I see anything, but you're not making it easy!

• You may want to add the Category City and County of San Francisco. I can find the code for it and put it on your page :) amy Amybekah (talk) 16:42, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
• I linked Recology's wiki page to yours so hopefully that will help fix the "orphan article" issue. Scfavrot (talk) 04:39, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
• Do Sunset Scavenger and Golden Gate Disposal still exist or have they both been completely absorbed by Recology? I was under the impressions that after they merged under Recology, they no longer existed... Please change my edits if this is incorrect. Scfavrot (talk) 05:10, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
• After editing this section, I began to question if this information should be moved out of "early 1900s" to their corresponding time periods:

"merged in 1987 under the parent company, Recology. [5][6] Currently, Recology holds the exclusive permit for collection which has resulted in a reliable public-private partnership, allowing San Francisco to design experimental pilot programs such as city-wide curbside organics collection. [6]"
