- Comment: This could use much more content, but I may not have time to do it. Should be enough for a DYK, I hope. --Piotrus
- New enough (Article became a non-redirect on 1 December 2017 by Piotrus), long enough (3,983 characters "readable prose size"), fully referenced. Hook, well duh, but okay. QPQ done. Image appropriately licensed. Hold for Christmas (25 December) Hawkeye7 (discuss) 05:58, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
- I think you can do better with the hook. How about:
- ALT1: ... that one-quarter of respondents to a 2016 survey of Europeans said they had re-gifted their Christmas presents to someone else? Yoninah (talk) 22:01, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
- As the nominator, I have no objections to the alt hook, but I guess it needs a re-review. Ping User:Hawkeye7. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:24, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
- Wouldn't this article be more appropriately named "Christmas present" per WP:COMMONNAME? Gatoclass (talk) 15:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
- This is likely a question for the talk page. I have no preference, but I'll be looking forward to seeing proof that one is more common than the other. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 15:26, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
