DYK for Dog

On 5 December 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Dog, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that dogs (example pictured) have much more sensitive noses and ears than humans, but have trouble distinguishing red from green? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Dog (2nd nomination). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Dog), 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.

Updated the list :) Wolverine X-eye ^{(talk to me)} 09:14, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! - Today's story comes from a DYK about a concert that fascinated me, and you can listen! For my taste, the hook has too little music - I miss the unusual scoring and the specific dedication - but it comes instead with a name good for viewcount. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:13, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

On the Main page today Jean Sibelius on his birthday. Listening to Beethoven's Fifth from the opening of Notre-Dame de Paris. We sang in choirs today. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:15, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Listen today to the (new) Perplexities after Escher. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:32, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Listen today to Beethoven's 3rd cello sonata, on his birthday - it was a hook in the 2020 DYK set when his 250th birthday was remembered. I picked a recording with Antônio Meneses, because he was on my sad list this year, and I was in Brazil (see places), and I love his playing. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:18, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I come to fix the cellist's name, with a 10-years-old DYK and new pics - look for red birds --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:45, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Today is a woman poet's centenary. Thank you for improving article quality in December! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:29, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
