Next prep for promotion

NOTE: Since a preponderance of hooks on the suggestions page are U.S. related, it is usually appropriate to have several hooks on U.S. topics in any given update, but never more than half. Thanks.

Tips on assembling sets are at Misplaced Pages:Did you know/Preparation areas.

Hooks

From Misplaced Pages's new and recently improved content:

... that the Aqueduc de Roquefavour (pictured) is the world's largest stone aqueduct?
... that Lieutenant Jenny Lewis, killed in a helicopter crash in 2002, was believed to be the first female Royal Navy pilot to die on duty?
... that Project Guardian was launched after a survey showed that 90% of incidents of sexual harassment on London's public transport went unreported?
... that in 1899 the eccentric journalist and politician Ture Malmgren started building Tureborg Castle, a faux-medieval castle in Uddevalla, Sweden, inspired by his journeys in the Rhine Valley?
... that the Spanish town of Almazán was where lexicographer María Moliner grew up?
... that Tang Yijie, who died in September 2014, spearheaded a project to compile all the known classics about Confucianism?
... that the small dorcopsis is sometimes preyed on by New Guinea singing dogs?

Credits

This space is to credit the creators/nominators of the items in this template that in fact appear on the Main Page. If you replace or remove an item before it appears on the Main Page, please revert the promotion of the hook so its template appears again at Template talk:Did you know and add a note to the nomination's template explaining why you removed it. Also add the template's link to the Misplaced Pages:Did you know/Removed page.

Credit templates

You can also give out credits using the following templates:

Article talk page: ({{dyktalk}}) {{dyktalk|17 January|2025}} (check if small style templates in use, if so add small=yes parm)
Article creator/expander's talk page: ({{UpdatedDYK}}) {{subst:UpdatedDYK|17 January|2025|Article name}} --~~~~
Nominator's talk page: ({{UpdatedDYKNom}}) {{subst:UpdatedDYKNom|17 January|2025|Article name}} --~~~~
Notify contributor about addition to a Portal: (can be modified for more than one portal) – ({{UpdatedDYKportal}}) {{subst:UpdatedDYKportal|Article name|Portal:Portal name}} --~~~~

Note that portal notifications are only done if you have taken the trouble to add the DYK hook to a relevant portal, which is entirely optional. The other notifications must be done before the preparation area page can be reset.

Images

Don't forget to add an {{mprotected}} notice to the image description page (or {{C-uploaded}} plus a copy of the author attribution and the licence tag if you have uploaded a temporary copy from Commons).

Posting the new update

Note: This is the manual method. When using DYKUpdateBot, the bot should automate all of the following except steps 1 and 10.

Make sure the image/media for the hooks to be loaded is on English Misplaced Pages or protected on Commons. If the image/file is on Commons and not protected, upload it to En and tag it with {{c-uploaded}}. You do not need to protect the picture; this is done automatically because of the cascading protection of the Main Page. Alternatively, if you are an admin at Commons you can protect the image/file at Commons instead of uploading to En.
Update T:DYK from the current queue.
Purge the cache of the Main Page to make sure the new entries appear.
Reset the DYK time.
Increment the next queue count.
Copy the previous set of hooks (not the new set just promoted to the front page) to the archive. Be sure to copy the final revision of the set (should be the last diff on the T:DYK page before your update). Please include the picture/file.
Check if the previous picture/file was temporarily uploaded from Commons for display on the Main Page, and delete it from En if so.
If you have time, please do the credits for the hooks just promoted (see "Credits" section above).
Clear the queue you just promoted hooks from with {{User:DYKUpdateBot/REMOVE THIS LINE}}.
If you have time, check if Preparation area 1 or Preparation area 2 are full. Check the hooks for errors, and promote them to the next empty numbered queue if they're good. Clear the queue you took hooks from to look like this. Tag the numbered queue with {{DYKbotdo|~~~}} once the queue is loaded and ready.
