• ... that Japanese singer Yuki Sakakihara lived "[so] deep in the mountains of Okayama Prefecture it was difficult for him to go out for karaoke? Source: "僕の実家は岡山県の山奥の奥の奥で。カラオケに行こうと思ったら、一ヶ月前くらいに予定を組んで、当日は一時間かけて私鉄の駅まで行き、そこから40分ほどかけてJRの駅に着いて、さらに移動してカラオケ屋に到着するくらいの感覚。"/"My jikka (can either mean home or one's parents' home) was deep in the mountains of Okayama Prefecture. If I wanted to go to karaoke, I would make plans about a month in advance, and on that day I would drive an hour to a private railway station. From there, it took about 40 minutes to arrive at the JR station, and then another transfer to arrive at the karaoke bar."

Overall: Article was moved to mainspace at 19:54 on March 10 but nomimated for DYK at 22:52 on March 17. It's a little bit over the cut-off. Sourcing looks good at Earwig picked up a 0% copyright violation. There is also some trivial information, such as Sakakihara being a fan of a band that really doesn't contribute to his notability. lullabying (talk) 22:54, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

@Lullabying: Well, the within the last seven days part in WP:DYKNEW could either be interpretated as the last 168 hours or the last seven calendar days, and I submitted it while interpreting it as the latter. Considering it's only almost three hours late under the former (especially since in part I've been a bit busy with school lately) and DYKs have been approved despite being almost a day late IIRC, maybe you can reconsider the rejection with some flexibility? If not, that's fine. ミラP@Miraclepine 06:19, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Not everyone lives in the same time zone, so I would definitely consider 168 hours. Can I get a second opinion before proceeding? lullabying (talk) 08:50, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

This is an obvious case for AGFing, per the bit of WP:DYKNEW that says "The seven-day limit can be extended for a day or two upon request." (For transparency, I have not looked at the article myself, but if that's the only objection, then let's roll.)--Launchballer 21:51, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Since it qualifies, then it looks good to go. lullabying (talk) 05:37, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
