Template:Did you know/Preparation area 1

''NOTE: Because a preponderance of hooks on the suggestions page are biographies or are U.S. related, it is usually appropriate to have several hooks on biographies or U.S. topics in any given update, but never more than half of either. Further information is available at IN:DYKSG. Thanks.''

Tips on assembling sets are at Ingenpedia:Did you know/Preparation areas.

Hooks

Credits
This space is to credit the creators/nominators of the items in this template that in fact appear on the Main Page. If you replace or remove an item before it appears on the Main Page, please revert the promotion of the hook so its template appears again at Template talk:Did you know and add a note to the nomination's template explaining why you removed it.



Credit templates
You can also give out credits using the following templates:
 * Article talk page: (DYK talk) (check if small style templates in use, if so add yes parm)
 * Article creator/expander's talk page: (UpdatedDYK)
 * Nominator's talk page: (UpdatedDYKNom)
 * Notify contributor about addition to a Portal: (can be modified for more than one portal) – (UpdatedDYKportal)


 * Note that portal notifications are only done if you have taken the trouble to add the DYK hook to a relevant portal, which is entirely optional. The other notifications must be done before the preparation area page can be reset.

Images

 * Don't forget to add an mprotected notice to the image description page (or C-uploaded plus a copy of the author attribution and the licence tag if you have uploaded a temporary copy from Commons).
 * Alternatively, consider crediting the image file page even if the file is from Commons:

Manually posting the new update (if the bot is down)

 * Note: This is the manual method. When using DYKUpdateBot, the bot should automate all of the following except steps 1 and 11.


 * 1) Make sure the image/media for the hooks to be loaded is on English Ingenpedia or protected on Commons. If the image/file is on Commons and not protected, upload it to En and tag it with c-uploaded. You do not need to protect the picture; this is done automatically because of the cascading protection of the Main Page. Alternatively, if you are an admin at Commons you can protect the picture/file at Commons instead of uploading to En.
 * 2) Update T:DYK from the current queue.
 * 3) [ Purge the cache of the Main Page] to make sure the new entries appear.
 * 4) [ Reset] the DYK time.
 * 5) Increment the next queue pointer.
 * 6) Copy the [ previous set of hooks] (not the new set just promoted to the front page) to the archive. Be sure to copy the final revision of the set (it should be the last diff on the T:DYK page before your update), and place the timestamp of the DYK update you just made above it. Please include the picture/file.
 * 7) Check if the previous picture/file was temporarily uploaded from Commons for display on the Main Page, and delete it from En if so.
 * 8) On the local description page of the picture/file for the previous set of hooks, add   (occasionally replacing   with   where appropriate). Note that, like the archives, this will create a one-day misalignment between the date on the file page and the date it actually appeared in DYK.
 * 9) If you have time, please do the credits for the hooks just promoted (see "Credits" section above).
 * 10) Clear the queue you just promoted hooks from with.
 * 11) If you have time, check if there are any full preparation areas. Check the hooks for errors, and promote them to the next empty numbered queue if they're good. Clear the prep you took hooks from to look like this. Tag the numbered queue with  once the queue is loaded and ready.
