- Comment: ALT3 and ALT4 are combinations with another double hook, Template:Did you know nominations/Shubert Theatre (Broadway). For both articles, I only counted the prose size and not references or lists in the expansion, per DYK rules. If the combined hooks are not satisfactory, I can provide individual hooks for both pages.

5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 14:37, 24 January 2022 (UTC).[reply]

Epicgenius, have you completed any QPQs for this nomination yet? Ideally, the QPQ should be done within a week of nomination. Please see RfC on excessively late supply of QPQ credits. I will be happy to review all four of these. Thanks. Flibirigit (talk) 23:54, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- I do actually have five QPQs in progress (three for this nom and two for upcoming noms). These should be done within the next day. I actually !voted in that RFC - I wasn't really a fan of the one-week rule, but I can provide QPQs when they are requested. Thanks for the heads up.

  - Great, will complete the reviews by the end of the weekend. Flibirigit (talk) 17:49, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
