Overall: User Chipmunkdavis (CMD) made a great job creating this article. The DYK nomination satisfy all the DYK eligibility criteria. I prefer the first (initial) version of the DYK, but probably I would add a word to it: "... that a bay in Papua New Guinea is called Goodenough?". For me it is an immediately catchy DYK and I prefer it over more complex ALT1 and ALT2 versions, but these alternative DYK versions are also good, so I think it is up to the DYK nominator to choose which one he prefer for the main page. I would definitely check the article if I saw the first (initial) DYK in the main page. -- Pofka (talk) 20:32, 22 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
