Created by InformationToKnowledge (talk). Self-nominated at 09:17, 29 September 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Pathogenic microorganisms in frozen environments; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Article is new enough and long enough. QPQ-exempt. The hook verifies (although, it might benefit from copyediting to make it a little less verbose) and is interesting. No issues with copyvios. Although it's not included in the nomination, File:Alempic 2023 permafrost viruses.jpg would make a good image for a lead hook if you wanted to rework it that way. A very nice article on an important subject by a relatively new editor; kudos for a job well done. RoySmith (talk) 01:46, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
