Docip archive of Indigenous Peoples' statements

• ... that Docip (archive pictured) provided a computer room for Indigenous peoples' representatives in international negotiations?

• Source: "In order for the Indigenous Peoples' Caucus in Geneva to function effectively, it was necessary to provide interpretation in several languages. doCip provided technical support - including a room of computers, available every day - and the translation of caucus documents." ref 8 in the current article

• • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Tlingit language, Template:Did you know nominations/Don W. Moore
  • Comment: One more QPQ to come soon. After starting this nomination, I have found I might be able to add an image to the article and this nomination, subject to its being released under an appropriate licence. Please hold off on reviewing this nomination for now: I expect to resolve the image issue by the 13th March.

Moved to mainspace by MartinPoulter (talk). Number of QPQs required: 2. DYK is currently in unreviewed backlog mode and nominator has 37 past nominations.

• Article is new/long enough, written in a neutral point of view (this is hard to achieve in articles like these but not an issue here), there are no signs of close paraphrasing, hook is cited by a reliable source, sources thorough out are strong, article is stable, image is properly licensed.

My only minor concern is that some of the info in the infobox is not cited/mentioned elsewhere in the body paragraphs, which means it is unsourced per WP:INFOBOXCITE. Examples: René Longet and all the official languages. Ping me when this is fixed and I can take a look, this is ripe for promotion. Morogris (✉ • ✎) 00:25, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for this rapid review, User:Morogris and for your compliments on the article. I have been in touch with Docip to get them to share two photographs, which I have added to the article. I've added one to the nomination: maybe people will think a photo of archived documents is boring, but the article makes the case that these are very important documents and Docip has done good by freely sharing an image of them. In the course of this correspondence they gave me a bit of a fact-check which I have confirmed against the sources.

1. I had confused the Director with the Chair of the Board; I've put the correct name of the Director (who is more involved with the operational leadership) in the infobox with a citation.
2. A sentence in the History section about Indigenous representation at international meetings is not true now but was true when Docip was created, in the time period described by the source; I've moved it to the past tense.
3. A paragraph describing the services provided by Docip is true in the present, and is core to understanding what Docip is; I've moved it out of the History section and into its own section. I've also added interpretation alongside translation as a service central to what Docip does.

As you rightly point out, there were facts in the infobox that were not cited (including one that turned out to be a mistake) so I've now remedied that. MartinPoulter (talk) 11:22, 12 March 2026 (UTC)

Appreciate the attention to detail and going above your way offline to improve this article. I have no additional concerns, this is good to go for the main page. I will leave it to our DYK admins if they want to use this hook with an image or without one. Morogris (✉ • ✎) 17:27, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
