Once the next update is completed, please copy the entire contents of this page to the next queue (shown below the time in the above template). If that page is already pending, copy this page to the next page in the bot queue instead. Then add {{tl|DYKbotdo}} to the top of the queue page you copied the hooks to. After doing so, clear this page so that someone can begin working on a new update. See ] for more information. Thanks.}} | |||

| STOP! BEFORE YOU ADD A NEW ITEM, PLEASE READ THESE NOTES: | |||
| *This is NOT a general trivia section. | |||
| *This section is only for items that have been listed on "NEW PAGES" in the last 120 hours | |||
| *The title of the new article should be '''BOLD''' and placed on TOP as the FIRST ITEM. | |||
| *Generally limited to SIX items, but whatever the case - just make sure it fits whatever else is on the page at that time. Use your common sense. | |||
| *NO STUBS (moreover, try to find new articles that are 1,500+ bytes in size) | |||
| *Try to pick articles that are ORIGINAL to Misplaced Pages (not 1911 or other data sources) and that are INTERESTING. | |||
| *The "Did you know?" fact must be mentioned in the article. | |||
| *Images should be sized to 100px or SMALLER. | |||
| *Do not use fair-use images. Instead, find a related free image (PD, GFDL, CC etc.) as an alternative. | |||

| ==Credits== | |||
| <div id="credits">This space is to credit the creators/nominators of the items in this Did you know/Next update template that in fact appear on the Main Page. If you replace or remove an item from the above template before it appears on the Main Page, make sure to re-add the hook to ] at the '''correct date of creation/expansion''' (find it in the history) along with credits, and preferably add a note explaining why you did so. | |||
| <!-- Example: *] - {{user|Jimbo Wales}}, nom by {{user|Contributing editor}} | |||
| Example: *{{DYKmake|Spoo|Jimbo Wales}} {{DYKnom|Spoo|Nominating Editor}} | |||

 | REMOVE THIS MESSAGE WHEN ADDING HOOKS TO THE QUEUE This queue is currently empty. When hooks are added, they must be approved by adding {{DYKbotdo|~~~}} to the top of the page; the bot will not make any updates unless this is added. Remove this message when adding the hooks. |
