Your GA nomination of South Bellevue station
The article South Bellevue station you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:South Bellevue station for comments about the article, and Talk:South Bellevue station/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article is eligible to appear in the "Did you know" section of the Main Page, you can nominate it within the next seven days.

DYK for U.S. Route 101
On 29 March 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article U.S. Route 101, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a former section of U.S. Route 101 was nicknamed the "Bloody Bayshore" for its frequent collisions? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/U.S. Route 101. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, U.S. Route 101), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Seal of Washington
Hey I saw you reverted my edit for Copyvio. If you think there is some copyright violation I’d be happy to hear it, but I didn’t add any new images to Wikipedia, these are all just from other articles where they are prominently featured. If you click on any of the links in the captions of the seal, you should see the seal in the pop up window. Eternal Blue Sky (talk) 05:25, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- @WP:NFUR. Those cannot be used outside of their designated articles without a very strong rationale; a gallery is not an appropriate use for them, nor is it needed for this article. SounderBruce 05:31, 25 April 2024 (UTC)]
- Can you tell me which specific images were tagged? If they are non-free use, I feel whatever rationale was used to justify their original placement would similarly apply here, as it is still illustrative of the topic of the article, Washington State seals. My usage here was based on a similar section in the California Seal page. Thanks! Eternal Blue Sky (talk) 05:40, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
