Your GA nomination of The Stone Breakers
The article The Stone Breakers you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:The Stone Breakers for comments about the article, and Talk:The Stone Breakers/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Your GA nomination of Mephistopheles and Margaretta
The article Mephistopheles and Margaretta you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Mephistopheles and Margaretta for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Golden -- Golden (talk) 00:01, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for checking it out. I would have liked to try but I understand your rationale. Bruxton (talk) 00:04, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I initially intended to hold the review and allow you to improve the article, but as I reviewed it and made suggestions that would result in the deletion of a quarter of an already short article, I realised it would be better for you to rework the article and renominate it in the future. As I mentioned in the review, don't lose hope. The article has great potential and can definitely reach GA with some work. — Golden  call me maybe? 00:14, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Understood. I started it some time ago and I have not gone back over it since it was at DYK. Bruxton (talk) 00:16, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

July music
On today's Main page, you can find a cantata that Bach first performed 300 years ago, and an iconic saxophonist from East Germany. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:41, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

While today's DYK highlights Santiago on his day, I did my modest share with my story today, describing what I just experienced, pictured. I began the article of the woman in green. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:11, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Today Jahrhundertring, written 10 years ago, and I just listened to Götterdämmerung from the Bayreuth Festival (pictured), - the image (of a woman who can't believe what she has to see) features also on the article talk. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:24, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Saving something, but probably not America
Can you please revive the discussion on the DYK Discussion page, but leave the hook in place for now? --evrik (talk) 03:01, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
 * This is maddening . You may not keep promoting your own hook which I have objected to. similarly objected. Bruxton (talk) 03:03, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
 * People regularly modify hooks when they promote something. That's what I did. It's standard practice. BTW, Can we pick one place to discuss this? --evrik (talk) 03:05, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I will go to DYK talk but you should depromote the hook since it has objections. And this is not standard practice. It is a case of DYKNOT. Bruxton (talk) 03:11, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Re: Misfits and Magic
Back in the day, The Daily Dot was greenlit – I think the piece i cited is a good example of why :) If you go to their website today, you're not gonna find quality content like that. It's just regurgitating TikTok stories now, which is rather disappointing. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 19:06, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the message. Gad to see you are creating. I am doing the same lately. Bruxton (talk) 20:22, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
