DYK for Asik-Asik Falls
On 7 October 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Asik-Asik Falls, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that the water of Asik-Asik Falls (pictured) comes from a source inside a cliff? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Asik-Asik Falls. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Asik-Asik Falls), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

DYK for Tropical Storm Kai-tak
On 7 October 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Tropical Storm Kai-tak, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that while soldiers carried out relief operations for Tropical Storm Kai-tak, the New People's Army attacked them? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Tropical Storm Kai-tak. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Tropical Storm Kai-tak), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Re: newsletter
Yea, I have the next newsletter started, I don't have all of the content written yet, and I'm not interested in doing that with my limited time these days. If you'd like to though, yes you can work on the newsletter - I started it here. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:16, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, I also don't think we need a "selected article" section in the newsletter. The newsletter is more to let people in the project know what's going on. I think it just adds clutter to the newsletter. Thanks though for leading the effort to write the newsletter, and create another cyclone cup. I think that's a great idea. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:38, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Do you like the newsletter, or adjustments need to be made? How am I going to elect the member of the month? Do I need to add the TC anniversary?

03:56, 8 October 2024 (UTC)- It's on the right track so far. I don't know if we need member of the month, maybe avoid that, and avoid the TC anniversary. I think the newsletter can be simpler, like a way to notify members of the cyclone cup, for instance, or of big changes and proposals. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:04, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Would you be interested in a bit of mentorship?
Hey there, TheNuggeteer :) I came across what happened at ANI last night and I'm really sorry. I enjoyed seeing your enthusiasm and the attention you brought to underserved areas at DYK, and if you'd like to exercise your chops while you sit out, I want to help you find your footing. Here's what I had in mind:
- Whenever you feel so inclined (but fairly regularly), pick something going on at DYK. An unapproved or approved nomination, or a hook in prep, queue, or on the Main Page.
- If it's an unapproved nomination, write up (but do not post) a review of a specific hook or of the full nomination, as appropriate. If it's a promoted hook or approved nomination, look for an error – if you don't find one, find a different hook/nomination instead.
- Post what you find on my talk page (preferably formatted the way you would post it to the live page). I'll be there to provide feedback, tell you what you missed and what you got right :) if there's an error I need to action, I'll make a post and credit you for finding it.
- No low-hanging fruit – don't review nominations by Epicgenius, Sammi Brie, or other quickpass nominators unless they turn out to not be quickpass after all. No borderline interestingness challenges or other subjective issues, no commenting on ongoing disputes (that would almost certainly violate your topic ban).
Would you be interested? I would understand if you wanted to just leave DYK alone for a while :) Daniel, would this idea be a topic ban violation? If it is, I can go ask for an exemption at AN, but IAR, really. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 04:20, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Theleekycauldron Sure! I really missed participating in DYK.

10:30, 8 October 2024 (UTC)- Awesome! Let's see what Daniel says and go from there. :) theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 10:35, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Theleekycauldron - this wasn't a unilateral sanction by an uninvolved administrator, but rather a consensus close of a community discussion, so I don't have any sort of implicit authority around interpretation of the topic ban. On the basis that you're an administrator and provided a tight rein is kept on things, I'm thinking it will probably be OK? Daniel (talk) 22:16, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
