Partial q-analogues of the Long–Tauraso–Zudilin supercongruences

Let (a;q)k=j=0k1(1aqj)(a;q)_k=\prod_{j=0}^{k-1}(1-aq^j) be the qq-shifted factorial, let Φn(q)\Phi_n(q) be the nnth cyclotomic polynomial, and let n>1n>1 be odd and r1r\geqslant 1. Partial q-analogue conjecture. For each d{1,2}d\in\{1,2\}, modulo Φn(q)2\Phi_n(q)^2,

k=0(nr+11)/d(q;q2)k4(q2;q2)k4q2k(k=0(n1)/d(q;q2)k4(q2;q2)k4q2k)(k=0(nr1)/d(qn;q2n)k4(q2n;q2n)k4q2nk).\sum_{k=0}^{(n^{r+1}-1)/d}\frac{(q;q^2)_k^4}{(q^2;q^2)_k^4}q^{2k} \equiv \left(\sum_{k=0}^{(n-1)/d}\frac{(q;q^2)_k^4}{(q^2;q^2)_k^4}q^{2k}\right) \left(\sum_{k=0}^{(n^r-1)/d}\frac{(q^n;q^{2n})_k^4}{(q^{2n};q^{2n})_k^4}q^{2nk}\right).

These are proposed as partial qq-analogues of the two classical supercongruences above; the source does not report a proof or disproof.
