DYK for My Dinner with Adolf

On 6 June 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article My Dinner with Adolf, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a dinner between Bill Maher and Donald Trump was satirized in "My Dinner with Adolf"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/My Dinner with Adolf. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, My Dinner with Adolf), 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.
