Southwold lighthouse

 * ... that a fire broke out in Southwold lighthouse just six days after it opened in 1890?
 * Comment: Expanded article. First time I've done this so I think it meets the criteria but any guidance would be appreciated. No article reviewed as DYK subs < 5.
 * Reviewed: Missing

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Sizes for hook and expansion are okay. Neutrality, copyvio (including pic) are fine. southwoldmuseum.org tells the story about the fire. Currently I see no problems with it apart from the QPQ. You have to review an article to get this nomination promoted.  Lajbi  Holla @ me  •  CP  16:10, 30 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Actually, as I see no evidence that Blue Square Thing has ever had a DYK nomination appear on the main page, there is no QPQ requirement, a fact which is correctly noted in the Comment above. If a QPQ review had been needed, however, the tick should not have been given. Assuming a nomination passes everything except the QPQ, a ? icon is the appropriate one to use; never give an approval tick until everything is in order. As it is, given your review, this is good to go. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:51, 1 November 2012 (UTC)


 * That is correct BlueMoonset, it's my first DYK. I thought it was the case that I didn't need to review in that case - thanks for your help and Lajbi for the initial review as well. Now that I understand the sorts of criteria for inclusion a bit better I'll see if I can't go an review at least one in the next couple of days.

 * We're always happy to have someone start reviewing before they're required to do so: thanks for wanting to give it a try before you've submitted your first five. For your first couple of reviews, you might want to note that fact, so people can take a look to make sure nothing was missed. I did so when I started, and had missed one of the criteria in an early review; fortunately, an experienced reviewer noted the issue. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:09, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
