The nominator has submitted more than 5 DYKs. They need to review an article before this goes further. --LauraHale (talk) 22:00, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Please be reminded that the QPQ requirement is meant for self-noms. I am not nominating an article written by me. Thanks. --PFHLai (talk) 04:03, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
