Forum:Poor forgotten DYK

So I click on DYK when I'm bored and curious on what some things people have written. I have noticed however, that most of the links there are broken. Deleted redirects, stuff from banned users, pages that were literally never written.

If that wasn't enough, I've also noticed that the staff (from my limited experience) tend to not notice the DYK section at all. New suggestions for DYK, as few as they are, tend to sit there for weeks or months before staff notice it. Broken links are pretty much never seen either.

So is there any way we can get some standards on DYK? Maybe a minimum length or something. We don't need it to be good articles, but we should at least make the box actually link us to the articles they were meant to be linked to. Right now it's just a graveyard of dead links and stub pages.
