- Hi Zakaria1978, welcome to DYK. This article is currently not eligible for DYK. It is a little under the minimum length of 1,500 characters of text and there are no citations for the "Mosque" section (the DYK rules are listed here for reference. If you can remedy this then I will happily take another look for you - Dumelow (talk) 07:20, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
- Nominator is no longer editing. Marking for closure as unsuccessful. Yoninah (talk) 22:36, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
- WP:Islam and WP:South Asia/WP:Central Asia. Please reconsider and kindly let me know what I need to do. Zakaria1978 ښه راغلاست (talk) 17:46, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

- One is the actual building and the other is about the sacred object. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 13:50, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- Shrine of the Cloak is about the cloak alone it should be at Cloak of Muhammad or possibly Kherqa - Dumelow (talk) 14:20, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- Hi ) 09:54, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
Yes, just like
- Zakaria1978: OK, I've moved the old shrine article to Cloak of Muhammad and linked it back to this one. I've also move content relevant to the shrine to this article from the other. I've probably become too involved to carry out an objective DYK review so I'll relist this for a second opinion - Dumelow (talk) 16:12, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you! Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 19:30, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
- New enough, long enough. Passes earwig. No QPQ needed. Approving Alt 2. --evrik (talk) 23:29, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, I came by to promote this. I edited and reorganized the article, and removed most cites from the lead. However, the fact about the shrine becoming notable in literature is not cited anywhere in the article. Also, as we are talking about a shrine, there is no description of the architectural design or its date of construction; a section called History or Description should be added right after the lead. Does anyone visit the shrine? This should be part of this new section too. Yoninah (talk) 14:42, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
Yoninah, I will look over your recommendation soon. I am very busy at work, I am in the medical profession. So, very busy right now. But, will have something within the next few days. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 18:32, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi War in Afghanistan (2001–present), where it is located. If you could consider my DYK in view of this, that would be awesome! Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 05:12, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Zakaria1978: There seem to be two different structures here, a shrine and a mosque. The description of the mosque is under Friday Mosque. Where is the description of the shrine? Yoninah (talk) 11:39, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi
The only RS that talks about a description of Kirka Sharif mentions that "walls are decorated with carvings of trees and other foliage, each design different from the next." This is already in the article. That's probably the best I can do. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 00:44, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
Hi there. This seems to have been waiting for a while, and Yoninah has been inactive for a while. I'll pick up the review and post comments shortly. Edge3 (talk) 19:43, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- ALT2 is ready. I did some copyediting myself, and I checked the sourcing for the hook. Article is still long enough and free of copyvio and other policy issues. Edge3 (talk) 20:40, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- Amakuru: I fixed it, the sources clearly mentions what was claimed. So, it was my issue for writing it that way. Now fixed. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 15:58, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Zakaria1978: ah great, that's fine then. If that's the case, shall we just go with Alt 2a which I've proposed above, stating the fact directly? I can approve that if you're happy with it. Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 21:07, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- Amakuru: Yes, I am absolutely happy with that. Thank you for your help. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 21:26, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
