 * Why February 1 in particular? I saw that it was previously nominated for a different date and now has been switched to Feb. 1. Is there a reason? If not, I recommend simply moving it to non-specific date section so that if there is a FA that pertains to Feb. 1, it can run.  Ergo Sum  23:34, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
