Re: The Encyclopædia of Ball Juggling at DYK
[edit]No worries -- the process at WP:DYK can be a touch on the Byzantine side! For future reference, if the hook is removed from the Suggestions page, it always means it has been moved to the template for use in the next update. (Although any other editor can move it back to the Suggestions page, with a note explaining their reason.) If an editor feels there are insuperable problems with the article, then it can be struck out or indented, but it won't be deleted. Regards, Espresso Addict 01:43, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
