Created by Piotrus (talk). Number of QPQs required: 2. DYK is currently in unreviewed backlog mode and nominator has 536 past nominations.

Piotrus The article is long enough and enough with no copyright violations. Two QPQs have been completed while in backlog mode. The hook is directly cited and interesting. A big issue is that sf-encyclopedia, Fancyclopedia, and ISFDB are user-edited. SL93 (talk) 02:16, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @SL93: Thanks for taking a look. SFE aka The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction is a very reliable outlet and not user generated (unless we consider Britannica etc. user generated). Now, you are right about the two others, but they are just used as an easy online backup ref for reliable refs (just check "[9]" and "[11]"); I don't think they are used for any facts that are not backed up by more reliable sources. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:09, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AirshipJungleman29 and Theleekycauldron Can you promote this if everything checks out? I'm not sure who exactly to ping other than Airship because I haven't entirely been following who has all completed recent promotions. SL93 (talk) 13:28, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- No objection if Airship does it, but intrigue-wise, this hook isn't my favorite? I also probably wouldn't be able to do this promptly. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 23:10, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Piotrus I am fine with the hook, but apparently no one wants to promote this one. Do you have an idea for any ALTs? SL93 (talk) 00:56, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- @SL93 and Theleekycauldron: Here are some ALTs - maybe one of them will have more luck. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:19, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

ALT1: ... that Science Fiction Chronicle, an American science fiction magazine, was initially a section of the fanzine Algol?

ALT2: that Science Fiction Chronicle won the Hugo Award for Best Semiprozine in 1993 and 1994?

ALT3: that Science Fiction Chronicle was edited by Andrew I. Porter for over two decades before he was controversially fired in 2002?

I am approving ALT2 and ALT3 as cited and the most interesting. SL93 (talk) 19:04, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
