DYK for Ahhotep I

edit

On 9 August 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Ahhotep I, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the discovery of a coffin belonging to Ahhotep I, which had been reused to bury a high priest, ignited a debate among scholars over the true number of Egyptian queens named Ahhotep? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Ahhotep I. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Ahhotep I), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hi Alanna the Brave, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the new page reviewer user right to your account. This means you now have access to the page curation tools and can start patrolling pages from the new pages feed. If you asked for this at requests for permissions, please check back there to see if your access is time-limited or if there are other comments.

This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:

You can find a list of other useful links and tools for patrollers at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Resources. If you are ever unsure what to do, ask your fellow patrollers or just leave the page for someone else to review – you're not alone!
