  • ... 5 x expanded, no copy vio issues, hooks in article and followed by citation to an off-line source. QPQ provided, no image. Hooks interesting. Do we say WW1 or First World War? DYK rules fulfilled. Thank you. Whispyhistory (talk) 20:28, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
  • We Yanks tend to say World War I. Our cousins across the pond prefer First World War. It used to be called The Great War. It's still the same horrendous disaster.Georgejdorner (talk) 03:55, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
