DYK for Fang Gan

On 18 May 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fang Gan, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Fang Gan failed the imperial examination more than ten times, apparently because of his cleft lip? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fang Gan. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Fang Gan), 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.

	The Editor's Barnstar

@Clovermoss: Such an honour. Thanks Clover! :) KINGofLETTUCE 👑 🥬 02:08, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I really do appreciate your enthusiasm. I'm trying to find mine but my brain is fickle 😂. Just know that I am trying to find the motivation to dig through sources and I will eventually get back to you on all that. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 13:47, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Clovermoss: As the Singaporean phrase goes, own time, own target! 😌 KINGofLETTUCE 👑 🥬 15:00, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good expression. I think part of my reluctance to do anything at the moment is because there's already a lot of mentally heavy stuff on my plate. 😅 I'd much rather chill and write about libraries at this moment in time. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 22:37, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Clovermoss: Or bridges! 😂 I can relate, my energy/interest levels can fluctuate quite a bit too. It's alright, we have all the time in the world... KINGofLETTUCE 👑 🥬 04:48, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
