Please help to close that nomination when the time has come

Dear Cart: I have re-created that nomination because the bot closed the original one too early (the usual “nomination was added to the list of active nominations only some days after the creation of the nomination subpage” problem). Now we must take care that the re-created nomination is closed manually when (and only when) the time has come, namely around 17 April 2024, 23:25 (UTC) (i.e. 18th April, 01:25 middle-European summer/daylight saving time).

Can you please help me with that, i.e., take a look at that nomination on 18th April and, if not yet done, add {{FPC-results-reviewed}} with the results to the nomination subpage (and the usual ‘featured/not featured’ to the headline)? Then the bot will (hopefully) do the rest. I just want to make sure that I don’t forget this – somehow there seems to be a jinx on me with that nomination ;–), so I feel much better when you have an eye on that nomination, too. Thank you very much! – Aristeas (talk) 08:05, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

CCing this to Radomianin – dear Radomianin, if possible please take a look at that nomination on 18th April, too. Mit dieser Nominierung scheint es irgendwie verhext zu sein – daher ist es besser, wenn drei Leute draufschauen und sie rechtzeitig schließen. Vielen Dank! – Aristeas (talk) 08:30, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Thank you, dear Aristeas, for the ping. I will of course pay attention to it and act accordingly. Six eyes see more than two :) Sincerely, -- Radomianin (talk) 08:43, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Ok Aristeas, I'll keep an eye on that nom too. ;-) You really should apply for Admin so you get the tools to help users fix nominations that were created and added to FPC in some faulty way. With your diligence, good manners, patience, and knowledge of coding, you would be perfect. You'd get my vote. --Cart (talk) 08:35, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Many thanks to both of you, Cart and Radomianin! Now I feel better about this nomination. (And sorry that this thanks come so late – I though I had already answered this but somehow I only clicked “thank” and forget the answer. Stupid me.) All the best, – Aristeas (talk) 17:47, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Appreciate your efforts, Cart. I was just about to take care of it and saw that you had already done so. Thanks a lot for your help :) -- Radomianin (talk) 06:14, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Dear Cart, dear Radomianin: thank you so much! Here is a little Robin singing a thankful melody for both of you. ;–) I know it was confusing to ask two people to take care for that nomination, but after all the bad surprises with that nomination I wanted to be absolutely on the save side. I’m glad it’s over. It’s great that besides all the vanity, personal animosities and quarrelling there are still decent, sensible and reliable editors on Commons. Thank you both for being such rocks in the surf! All the best, – Aristeas (talk) 08:21, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

No problem, there are some benefits to having insomnia sometimes. Cute bird photo! I saw one sitting on my "cat balcony" (dangerous place for small birds!) yesterday. No camera ready though. --Cart (talk) 08:35, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
