@Pokelego999: - SchroCat (talk) 04:00, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
I'd rather not, unless you're definitely sure about this. The reason I'm pushing back is that the 62nd anniversary is a staggeringly weak rationale for trying to reserve a date. You also stand a chance of other articles with a better claim for the date being nominated and scheduled. Your call: I will swap it out, somewhat reluctantly, if you really want this, but I'm not sure it's a wise choice. - SchroCat (talk) 17:46, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
Oop, sorry, I forgot to reply to this. I appreciate your advice and your help regarding this, but I really want to at least give this a try since it's my first TFA and I think it'd be fun to have it on this date if possible. I understand it's not the wisest course of action, but I want to at least give this a shot, even if it could be pretty easily pushed out. If it's alright, I would request it stay on the date I requested for the time being, but if a more important TFA ends up taking the spot I'm not too miffed if I end up having to take another date later down the line.

OK, I’ll swap it out. - SchroCat (talk) 03:32, 23 August 2025 (UTC)
