A fact from 1928 Liechtenstein embezzlement scandal appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 29 February 2024 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
... that the 1928 Liechtenstein embezzlement scandal cost 1.8 million Swiss francs, the equivalent of two yearly state budgets? Source: "Die Sanierung der Sparkassa, für die zudem ein Darlehen von 2 Mio. Fr. von der Schweiz aufgenommen wurde, kostete das Land Liechtenstein 1,8 Mio. Fr. – was zwei Jahresbudgets entsprach."

Overall: @
TheBritinator: The article is new enough, properly sourced, and I see nothing preventing it from becoming a DYK except for a QPQ requirement. I really love Liechtenstein history so I must thank you for all of your edits on those pages.

Note to reviewer
Jon698: as best I can determine,
TheBritinator only has one, or maybe two, previous DYK nominations. If this is the case, then they are currently exempt from the QPQ requirement, since five prior nominations triggers the QPQ requirement from then on. Please note that you should always fill in the status field in the DYK checklist template to reflect the current state of review, even if the nomination isn't yet ready to pass, and to make sure your comment and sig appears. Otherwise, no one can see either. (If all that's missing is a QPQ, the typical status is "?".) Thank you for taking on this nomination.
