- BlueMoonset, Calling your attention to the fact that this template was created on March 14, but not properly transcluded to T:TDYK until now.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:35, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- TonyTheTiger, that shouldn't be an issue: the nomination page was created in plenty of time on March 14, the day after the article was created. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:40, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Reviewers, please note that I am hopeful to have this nom on the main page during the final four weekend (April 1- April 3 UTC).-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 16:23, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
This is a time sensitive hook as noted above.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 14:56, 26 March 2018 (UTC)- BlueMoonset, It looks like the queues up to April 2 are getting full. Is there another way to get some eyes on this given its date sensitivity?-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 15:53, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
- To be clear the 2018 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament championship game is scheduled to begin at 0:20 April 3 UTC. This would be a good article for April 3, especially if Michigan wins in the semifinals on March 31.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 18:47, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
- Note that NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament is considered to be a subject of widespread appeal and interest to main page readers per Wikipedia:In_the_news#Sports_and_other_recurring_events. Having a subject related to a timely topic of widespread general interest would be good for DYK.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:41, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. All images are freely-licensed; I think the middle one looks best at thumbnail size. QPQ done.- There are a lot of hooks here, but I'd narrow it down to ALT2 or ALT3, which are the leanest. (If it's important to mention that this is before the 2018 NCAA Championship Game, then we can put that back in.) I would suggest adding that he plays for the Wolverines. But the two hooks look exactly the same to me, except one says he had two highest scoring games, and one says he had four highest scoring games, against the same top-five ranked opponents. Which one is correct? Yoninah (talk) 21:18, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
- He had 16 points in 2 games(against top-5 opponents) and 15 points in 3 games (2 of which were top-5 opponents). Thus, his two highest games were against 2-five opponents and it is a matter of statistical parlance whether you ant to say his top 4 games were against top-5 opponents.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:29, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
- @TonyTheTiger: which would you prefer? Yoninah (talk) 07:40, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
- I was hoping for some feedback on which is the better way to present the facts.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:11, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
