State visit by Elizabeth II to Russia

  • Article is new enough, long enough, well sourced. Earwig says copyvio "unlikely", although personally I think you could reword a few of the phrases that it does pick up as matches. QPQ is done. I was ready to approve this, but on closer reading of the paragraph containing the information referenced in the hook, my issue is that it's unclear where the "overshadowing" is happening – was it only in the UK and in the British media? Did the Russian media really care that much? Besides all the official meetings, what was the wider public reception of the visit in Russia? Seems worth clarifying within the article, since the hook is resting on this information. Cielquiparle (talk) 05:25, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Pinging @Sahaib: I just tried to leave a message on your Talk page re: this review, but it seemed to trigger a bug that replicated my response infinitely when I hit "Preview". Cielquiparle (talk) 05:34, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
  • @Sahaib: Thanks for clarifying within the article! Looks much better and tells a more complete story. I am going to propose an ALT hook now (variation of ALT0) and put back your original-original (which to me seems like it could be ok) and then pass this on to someone else for final approval:
  • ALT0a: ... that Elizabeth II's 1994 state visit to Russia was overshadowed by a Prince Charles biographical book?
  • ALT0b: ... that Elizabeth II's 1994 state visit to Russia was overshadowed in the UK by a Prince Charles biographical book?
  • ALT1: ... that Elizabeth II's 1994 state visit to Russia, the first and only visit by a British monarch on Russian soil, was overshadowed in the UK by Prince of Wales: A Biography?
  • ALT1a: ... that Elizabeth II's 1994 state visit to Russia, the first and only visit by a British monarch on Russian soil, was overshadowed in the UK media by Prince of Wales: A Biography?
  • ALT2: ... that Elizabeth II's 1994 state visit to Russia, the first and only visit by a British monarch on Russian soil, was overshadowed in the UK by Jonathan Dimbleby's biography of Prince Charles?
  • ALT2a: ... that Elizabeth II's 1994 state visit to Russia, the first and only visit by a British monarch on Russian soil, was overshadowed in the UK by Jonathan Dimbleby's book about Prince Charles?

Looking for a new reviewer as I just wrote some ALT hooks which require reviewing. (Otherwise good to go from my point of view). Happy to help with any further workshopping of hook if needed, so we can escape the reviewer-hook-workshopping conundrum, and get this over the line. Thanks!

  • all of these meet criteria, more or less – in my experience, hooks usually get cleaned up in prep anyway, so I wouldn't fuss too much about wording in the nom. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 23:00, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
