Yaroslav Halan

 * ... that 11 hits with an axe led to the death of the Ukrainian writer Yaroslav Halan, who was killed for his sharp political pamphlets? Source: "Ilariy Lukashevych [...] and Mykhailo Stakhur, a rank-and-filed OUN member, came to Halan's apartment, on the pretext that Halan would help Lukashevych gain admission to a forestry college. Stakhur hit Halan 11 times with an axe, and the pair fled."

 * Symbol question.svg Non-free content can only be used in the article namespace per WP:NFCC, so File:Yaroslav Halan's Body After Murder.jpg cannot be used on this page. I'm not sure whether the presence of an image affects a DYK nomination, but please use a freely licensed/public domain image instead if an image is required for nomination purposes. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:19, 28 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg No action necessary regarding image removal. Review needed. --Paul_012 (talk) 20:37, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg This article is new enough and plenty long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral, and I detected no copyright issues. I have given this nomination a tick, but the creator, Катала, has not had a DYK before, and it is possible that others may think the article needs further work before being ready for the main page.

 * Symbol possible vote.svg This article does indeed some more work before it can be promoted: quite a few paragraphs lack a footnote, and the "Homage" and "Awards" sections are completely unreferenced. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:31, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol delete vote.svg Nominator has not edited since April 22, and the article itself has not been edited in over a month. If there are no further edits soon, this will be closed as stale. Courtesy ping . Anyone else is free to adopt this nomination to help it move forward. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:12, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the ping, but my only involvement with the nomination had to do with the removal of a non-free image from it. I have no opinion either way as to whether the nomination should be accepted. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:48, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
