User:Rusalkii/AfC DYKs

When I accept a particularly interesting draft at AfC, or I see a new user making a series of good drafts, I suggest that they nominate their work at Did You Know. Sometimes they do it, and sometimes the articles feature on the main page sometime later. These are not articles I have personally worked on and do not include articles that I have accepted that were nominated by the user without any encouragement from me (usually more experienced users).
