Article is new, long enough, and within policy. The hook is sourced and interesting. There are no problems with the images as it is free-use. All we need is a QPQ to be fulfilled and it can go ahead. ISD (talk) 20:53, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Can I suggest a tweak? What about: ... that three unsuccessful attempts were made to destroy the offices of The Union Flag, a newspaper published in Jonesborough, Tennessee? Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 03:28, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, ISD, QPQ'd Template:Did you know nominations/2021 Seattle City Council 3rd district recall election. I'd be fine with Peacemaker67's alt Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 16:35, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

With QPQ given, and the creator happy to consent to hook changes if needs be, I'm happy for this to be passed. ISD (talk) 19:12, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

FWIW, I think the original hook alt 0 is far more hooky. Leaving a little bit of mystery makes the reader far more likely to click. Cbl62 (talk) 13:32, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
