# Check if the cascading protection has kicked in. You can do this by clicking "Edit" on the English Wikipedia file page, where you should hopefully see an [[Wikipedia:Editnotice|editnotice]] telling you that the page is fully protected. If not, please protect the image manually – set protection expiry to after the image is slated to leave the Main Page.

# Congrats, you've done it! After the image comes off the Main Page, it's best to go back and delete the temporary file :)

==Switching update interval==

See [[WP:DYKROTATE]] for policy on when we switch update intervals. The technical process is to edit [[User:DYKUpdateBot/Time Between Updates]] to have the time (in seconds) between updates. Currently, the only two legitimate values are 86400 (one update per day) or 43200 (two updates per day). Please don't get creative. For a variety of technical reasons, you should only make a change shortly after midnight UTC.
