Needs a QPQ, the article could use some copy editing, the hook is not very interesting. --evrik(talk) 04:59, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It is a bad hook. I just put it in as a placeholder. I’ll think of a new one. Best, Thriley (talk) 05:17, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Thriley: This is aged, please provide the QPQ and a better hook or I will move to close this nomination. Thank you. --evrik(talk) 20:26, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Thriley: I can't think of a good hook for this ... and if I do, I can't approve the nomination. Any help? --evrik(talk) 22:36, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for trying! I’ll have a hook ready in a few hours. Best, Thriley (talk) 23:34, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I approved Alt 1. I'll leave the rest to the promoter. --evrik(talk) 13:28, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Evrik: the promoter can't use them unless they're approved, but it's still fine if you don't want to tick more hooks. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 05:10, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Theleekycauldron: would it be easier if I struck the two hooks you added after I approved this nomination? --evrik(talk) 20:46, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I was meh on them. If someone else wants to look at them, okay. --evrik(talk) 21:04, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
ALT1a "... that Romy Golan's 2021 book Flashback, Eclipse is an exploration of Italian art of the 1960s that moved away from the art created under Italian fascism?"
@Evrik: can you look at this hook? I think it is better to remove the link to modern art as it really isn’t what Golan is referring to. Thriley (talk) 18:59, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have approved Alt1a.--evrik(talk) 19:03, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
