Anti-Greek sentiment[edit]

  • ALT1:... that an anti-Greek riot happened in 1918 in Toronto, Canada, caused by returning World War I veterans with anti-Greek sentiment?
  • ALT2:... that anti-Greek riots occurred in Australia, Canada and the United States during the early 20th century?
  • Reviewed: Negativity bias
  • Comment: Not a DYK self-nomination (aside from one tiny edit I did). If you disagree with the original hook (or any other hook), please do not hesitate to create ALT2 or so forth.
  • Further comment: This has languished here for quite some time. I was going to review it and pass it (the above hooks are verified) but frankly the first hook is dull and unsurprising, and ALT1 is great but frankly should be saved for a separate article about that event. So I have written the more general ALT2, and anyone else is welcome to verify and promote it. Daniel Case (talk) 19:00, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
