Grakliani Hill

 * Symbol confirmed.svg new enough, long enough, closed paragraphs and inline citations checks, interesting reading and factual. good 2 go.BabbaQ (talk) 13:23, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Symbol possible vote.svg Given that the post on the DYK talk page casts very strong doubt on the 300,000 year claim, I've struck both hooks; a new one must be provided before this nomination can proceed. Also, the close paraphrasing and other issues noted must be addressed before we ask a new reviewer to check the new hook and revised article. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:32, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Working on it. The site is still being explored, so it may take some time for new information to arise. I already incorporated an National Geographic article which did not exist at the time of article creation. Tradereddy (talk) 15:08, 3 October 2015 (UTC)


 * BlueMoonset, full review done and copy edits made. Long enough, no obvious plagiarism (though I welcome 's second opinion), etc. Mind you, I can't pass a hook cause there isn't one. Any hook worth its salt will mention the previously unknown script discovered on the altar of a seventh-century BC fertility goddess, predating the existing scripts from the area by a millennium. But I'm not going to propose that hook cause then I can't pass it, and after spending almost two hours making this article conform to various standards there is no way I am not going to count this for QPQ. So if anyone wants to propose a hook, go ahead and ping me. Drmies (talk) 01:56, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
 * ALT2 ... that a previously unknown script found on an altar at the Grakliani Hill archeological site in Georgia is 1000 years older than any other script in the Caucasus? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yngvadottir (talk • contribs) 10:48, 16 October 2015‎ (UTC)
