Self nominated at 16:24, 22 March 2013 (UTC). :* 16px Good to go. New enough (created 22 Mar 2013). Long enough (1,800 characters). Neutral, well sourced with no close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations or plagiarism. Image license is acceptable; shows moderately well at 100x100. Hook is hooky and supported by text and sources. QPQ not needed; no prior DYK noms by Thingg were found. :: Small niggle about the last word in the original hook. The word across is imprecise, implying a round or spherical object. The SNR is an oblong shell, approx 200x90 parsecs (~650x300 ly). I leave to choice of hook to whomever promotes but I suggest a slightly longer but more descriptive hook: ::* ALT1... that spiral galaxy NGC 5585 (pictured) contains a supernova remnant that is over 650 light-years long, 300 light-years wide and still expanding? ::DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·cont) Join WER 00:50, 23 March 2013 (UTC) :::*I definitely like the alternate hook better. Thanks for the suggestion. :) Thingg⊕⊗ 21:15, 23 March 2013 (UTC) ::16px OK to go with alternate hook. DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·cont) Join WER 23:55, 28 March 2013 (UTC) {{-}}{{#if:yes|==NGC 5585==
that the spiral galaxy NGC 5585 (pictured) has a supernova remnant that is more than 650 light-years across?
