• General eligibility:
• New enough:
• Long enough: - After copyediting, it does not meet the 1,500-character threshold.

Policy compliance:

• Adequate sourcing: - Needs better sources to back claims.
• Neutral:
• Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook eligibility:

• Cited:
• Interesting: - Neither hook is particularly interesting to a broad audience. The papal mass at the airport sounds far more interesting.

QPQ: - Still needed.
Overall: Went ahead and copyedited the article, but it seems to have brought it below the length requirement after removing some filler. SounderBruce 01:41, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

• @SounderBruce: I reviewed a DYK nom for QPQ, and I fixed the longevity problem, for another alt, I suggest:
• ALT2 ... that the first papal mass in Cebu was held at Lahug Airport? Source: [3]
  Anyway, can you tell me which sources aren't reliable? TheNuggeteer (talk) 02:39, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

"PacificWrecks.com" does not exactly scream "reliable". The CDN piece seems to be an opinion/contributor reflection rather than a proper news article. I imagine a papal mass would have plenty of coverage, no? SounderBruce 02:42, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

@TheNuggeteer: Please respond to the above. Z1720 (talk) 01:50, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

@SounderBruce: PacificWrecks seems pretty popular and reliable, but in case, I found this website, which seems like a copy of a book? And the other statement about the CDN piece, yes, It seems like that, but they would not change the facts, since they are one of the most reliable sources in Cebu City. And the 3rd and last statement, yes, It feels like that, but it was pretty old, so im not sure about the last one.
Thanks, 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 04:28, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

There still isn't sufficient citations; coverage of the papal mass from beyond the one author (Oaminal) would be ideal. SounderBruce 01:44, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

@SounderBruce:Found six citations, SunStar, Augnet, The Vatican, CDN (another), Inquirer, and a Reuters video (which stated that there were a million people, which probably can be included in the hook.) 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 07:18, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

@SounderBruce: Does the above satisfy your concerns? If not, what else needs to happen to get this approved? Z1720 (talk) 23:18, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

New reviewer needed unless SounderBruce returns. Z1720 (talk) 19:54, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

@TheNuggeteer: Those citations need to be added to the article (and could help expand it a bit more). SounderBruce 22:07, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Done, just needs checking. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 12:03, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

@TheNuggeteer: SounderBruce hasn't responded to this in over a week, so I'll take over from here. I took out one sentence per WP:SUMMARY, and was about to move the 1966 closure to the end of the paragraph beginning "On August", but the cited source doesn't mention the date. Could one be added?--Launchballer 12:24, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

@Launchballer: Done, Done, and Done, found a Pressreader source. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 12:20, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

That's better, although I just noticed a bunch of stuff in the infobox that isn't sourced. For DYK purposes you can just add cites to the infobox but I think the article would be better if it was added to the body.--Launchballer 12:38, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

Which parts? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 12:39, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

Airport codes, opening date, timezone, elevation, and the runway stuff. I think you can get away with just linking Bureau of Aeronautics to Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines.--Launchballer 12:46, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
