5x expanded by Royroydeb (talk). Self-nominated at 16:25, 10 May 2019 (UTC).

The hook sounds rather vague and doesn't say much. It doesn't catch attention, and I don't think it appeals to anyone but history buffs. Can something more exciting be proposed? Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 05:14, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

ALT1:... that Saadat Ali Khan I, a governor of Oudh State in India was originally from Nishapur, Persia?

I personally think that hook is even more niche. Probably a new direction is needed here. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 11:43, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

@Royroydeb: Can a new hook please be proposed here? Thanks. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 12:03, 9 July 2019 (UTC)

@Narutolovehinata5:,

ALT2:... that Saadat Ali Khan I, the first governor of Awadh in India previously worked in the Mughal army? RRD (talk) 06:37, 13 July 2019 (UTC)
ALT2 is completely un-interesting. ALT1 is good and hooky enough. Need to check the article. Doing... ∯WBG^converse 13:09, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

To me this article is not DYK ready. Hook and ALT1 are both uninteresting. Lede is almost impervious to someone unfamiliar with the special term used therein. Lede also does not adequately summarize the substantial body, and for a bio the sections are a bit unusual.Wuerzele (talk) 03:19, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

Giving the nominator Royroydeb three days to respond. I will close the nomination if there is no response by then. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 11:02, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

Your first review took a month to start. Why do you expect the nominator to be prompt within 3 days? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 07:51, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
