• @EF5: Please provide a QPQ ASAP. Current QPQ rules require one to be provided at the time of the nomination, and noms can be closed without warning if one is not provided quickly. As it has been almost a week since the nom and no QPQ has been provided, the nomination will be closed if a QPQ is not provided soon.

@Narutolovehinata5: Done. I don't remember this rule existing earlier this year, when was this set into motion? E_F⁵ 13:33, 26 November 2024 (UTC)

It's a new rule that was only introduced about a month or two ago following a WT:DYK discussion. Normally I would have just closed the nomination given the length of time that has passed, but given that you may not have been aware of the new rule I decided to ping instead and give a reminder.
