Well, it is difficult to keep track of, as it is updated every 6-12 hours, depending on available admins. If our article get selected a note will be posted on both our talk pages (see the one above your note on my talk page, notifying me that Charles Netter appeared on the main page).Personally, I enjoy looking at the main page and see an article or a fact I wrote, so when I have a nomination I add T:TDYK and T:DYK/N to my watchlist, and try to keep up with the pace. This way I am also able to respond to comments regarding my post.
