Instructions

These "Did you know..." subpages are randomly displayed using {{ Random portal component}}.

  1. DYKs at this list must have successfully already appeared at Template:Did you know.
  2. Add a new DYK to the next available subpage.
  3. Update the DYK max at the main portal page. (Only include completed sets of 3.)

This rather slow Toolserver query returns a list of talk pages that have been tagged by WikiProject France and have the standard box describing a DYK appearance.
