5x expanded by SounderBruce (talk). Self-nominated at 20:22, 8 March 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/List of Seattle SuperSonics seasons; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]
Article is long enough and was expanded in the last three days. Sourcing looks good, as does Earwig. Both hooks are interesting and cited inline in the article, I prefer ALT0. No picture nominated so that is N/A. Per WP:QPQ two reviews will be required to finish up this nom since you're pretty well clear over 20 DYKs.

@PCN02WPS: The double QPQ is a bit of a surprise, looks like I missed the discussion on this. Does it retroactively apply to all nominations made before March 8? SounderBruce 04:29, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SounderBruce: I have no idea about any discussion; I saw a couple of users enforcing it on nominations before the eighth and checked WP:QPQ, which says that it's been active for about 24 hours. Hadn't ever heard of it before tonight either. If I'm wrong that would be awesome, I'd have a few extra QPQs to spare. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 05:01, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's this discussion.--Launchballer 10:32, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SounderBruce and PCN02WPS: Double QPQs are required for nominations after 8 March, not before; said discussion made no mention of the mode applying retroactively, and I think quite rightly.--Launchballer 11:24, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
QPQs added, good to go. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 05:18, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
