- DrKay how is Queen Victoria? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:44, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230716204400","author":"SandyGeorgia","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SandyGeorgia-20230716204400-Checking_URFAs","replies":[]}}-->
- UEFA Euro 1976 final is 2008; maybe Amakuru will have a look ?

- @SandyGeorgia: yes, happy to go through it. At first glance it looks fine, but would need to check tone and sourcing a bit just to make sure.

Hey, I don't think there is anything humorous enough about this article for it to ever get picked for its release day (April 1). I thought the release of the artist's sophomore album (September 8) would be a a good time to run this but it seems to be a rejected TFAP request. Can we run it sometime around September 8...? Not a single article about this artist has ever ran on the main page so this is extremely odd to me.--NØ 19:36, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230804193600","author":"MaranoFan","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-MaranoFan-20230804193600-Deja_Vu_(Olivia_Rodrigo_song)","replies":["c-Wehwalt-20230805011600-MaranoFan-20230804193600"],"displayName":"N"}}-->
- I consider TFA/R first, since that is a request for community backing, and there was a popular music song that went through TFA/R. We can't run too many similar articles. And remember the language of WP:TFAP, "Articles for dates beyond then can be listed here, but please note that doing so does not count as a nomination and does not guarantee selection." But if you can do a blurb for the one you want, I'll stretch a point and move Victoria until later in the month. I need it today, though. Would that be OK?

- Just leave it here.
