Improved to Good Article status by Aintabli (talk). Self-nominated at 19:07, 10 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Eretnid dynasty; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • Nominated a day after passing GA. Hook is good. No QPQ. @Aintabli: Is one required?
    Also, I would reword the hook slightly:
Image is good, but the caption is too long (and the hook needs to refer to the pic). May I suggest: "Eretnid dirham with an inscription in the Uyghur script". Srnec (talk) 03:23, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
@Aintabli: Please respond to the above. Z1720 (talk) 15:04, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
Sorry for the late response. I don't know how I missed the previous comment. Both changes are fine by me. In the hook, I think we can include (coin pictured) next to Eretna instead of the Eretnid dynasty, because the coin belongs to Eretna, and his descendants used different motifs in their coins. So, hook: that the Eretnid dynasty that ruled central and eastern Anatolia during the fourteenth century was founded by Eretna (coin pictured), an Ilkhanid officer of Uyghur origin? And image caption: Eretnid dirham with an inscription in the Uyghur script Aintabli (talk) 16:41, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
No QPQ required. The follow ALT hook and caption are approved:
Dirham of Eretna with an inscription in the Uyghur script
Dirham of Eretna with an inscription in the Uyghur script
I'm not sure about guidelines for captions in DYK, but I think this is fine. Srnec (talk) 02:08, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
