Third Month Fair
- ... that according to legend, the Third Month Fair was originally held on the moon? Source: 'Another legend is about the existence of a "trade fair on the moon." It is said that the third princess of Dali fell in love with a young fisherman. On the 15th of the third lunar month, the two went to the moon to buy fishing net and other working instruments but returned home empty-handed. The local people somehow managed to relocate the trade fair to the earth and then the trade fair began in Dali.' Wei, Liming (2010). Chinese Festivals: Traditions, Customs and Rituals (Second ed.). Beijing. pp. 123–126. ISBN 9787508516936.

- @Mx. Granger: May 4 is just outside six weeks after March 19. We usually require that a special occasion date be within six weeks of the nomination date. If you want the article to run on that date, you will need to make a request at WT:DYK. Would you want to do that, or would you be fine with the hook running as a regular hook?

- @Narutolovehinata5: I created the article on March 19, but I made the nomination on March 25, which is less than six weeks before May 4. So I think this requirement is met, but please let me know if I'm missing something. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 14:12, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
- Oh I see, I apologize for missing that. Should be just fine then. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 14:13, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
