Overall: 
Nice work Cielquiparle. I'm surprised this nomination took so long to be reviewed, since all of the hooks seem interesting. A few points I had, which do not hold up the approval of this nomination:
- Each of the images are used at least once in the three articles, though none are in all articles. However, I think the images seem to correspond to the main subject of each hook, e.g. File:Chinese fables 031 The snail and the bees.jpg for Davis's article in ALT3.
- The hooks are all verified in at least one of the articles. Some of the hook facts seem to be only in the main subject of the hook, but I don't think this is a problem.
- The hook lengths are all fine. In a multi-article hook, the text of only one of the links is counted in the hook count, per WP:DYKSG#Other supplementary rules for the hook, so the counts are based on that rule.
- In my opinion, ALT0 and ALT3 are most interesting, while ALT2 is the most straightforward. (ALT1 can also be used, but I prefer the other three hooks.) Epicgenius (talk) 00:37, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
