Finn Hågen Krogh[edit]

  • ALT1:... that 2014 Olympic Finn Hågen Krogh claims he could have been a professional footballer if he did not compete in cross-country skiing?
  • ALT2:... that 2014 Olympian cross-country skier Finn Hågen Krogh thinks it is more fun to play football than to compete in cross-country skiing?

  • Comment: I want this to hit the main page during the Olympics, and if possible on 11 February.

5x expanded by Mentoz86 (talk). Self nominated at 12:14, 10 February 2014 (UTC).

  • QPQ done. Article is five-fold expanded within the last 5 days. All paragraphs is sourced and no close paraphrasing issues detected. I prefer the main hook focusing on the sprint event (which is the reason for asking to have it on the mainpage tomorrow). The fact in the hook is backed up by inline-cited fact. The fact in the hook refers to a major story in Norwegian media, and is as such interesting; allthough I suspect international readers will probably not get that this is a big thing;) I have proposed a Alt3 hook simply as slightly rewritten alternative, but I am not arguing that my proposal is better, so promoter may choose what they prefer.
  • ALT 3: DYK that…. that Norwegian cross-country skier Finn Hågen Krogh was promised a spot in the individual sprint in the 2014 Winter Olympics but was controversially dropped 8 days later?
