Comment: Timing -- I created this early in term for my presentation at Wiki Conf NA, even though I couldn't edit for three days due to religious reasons. So please forgive the late submission. I see various potential hooks, let me know what seems most appealing. Will do a QPQ, I now see that's required.
Created by ProfGray (talk).
Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 5 past nominations.
Overall: Pass with religious exemption (as explained up above) for newness criterion which exceeded the limit by several days. The nominator has addressed all copyedit concerns that I left on their talk page[1] with new revisions directly resolving the problems.[2] I have no real preference for any one of the hooks, so I will state my preference based solely on hook length, from short to long: first choice ALT0; seocnd choice ALT3; third choice ALT1, fourth choice ALT2. Good work.I left numerous comments on your user talk page about this article so I won't reinvent the wheel here. Besides the newness (religious exemption request), sourcing (cite needed tags), and minor issues (grammar), I think this could conceivably be salvaged for DYK if others don't have a problem with that. Of the four hooks above, none of them is as interesting as the golden nugget I pointed to on your talk page, and it's too bad you didn't use that as a hook, because it's fascinating. As for what we have here, I can't say I have a favorite or a preferred one, so if you can get the article in shape (and nobody objects to the newness exemption), we can move forward. I'm fine with letting someone else choose the hook because my preferred one isn't here.Viriditas (talk) 23:05, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
