• ... that Thailand's former Crown Princess once fed birthday cake to Air Chief Marshal Fufu wearing only a G-string?

Created by Prioryman (talk). Self nominated at 22:55, 5 February 2015 (UTC).

• Comments:
  1. The hook is inaccurate in referring to "Crown Princess", a title which doesn't currently exist.
  2. This seems like a potential BLP (and in Thailand, possibly criminal) issue. Since the WP:DYK rules state that "articles and hooks that focus unduly on negative aspects of living individuals or promote one side of an ongoing dispute should be avoided," this hook might not appropriate for the Main Page. --Paul_012 (talk) 06:27, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Agree with Paul. A dog being conferred the title of "Air Chief Marshal" is hooky enough IMO. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 06:54, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Well, if it's got an iron-clad source (and I'm not saying it does) I don't see a BLP problem, but I do think the dog's name might be enough. EEng (talk) 05:37, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

• ALT1: ... that the Crown Prince of Thailand once owned Air Chief Marshal Fufu?

Added former and linked article in original hook. Fuebaey (talk) 16:11, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Love it. EEng (talk) 03:32, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

• Looks good: QPQ done, new enough when nominated, article seems neutral and well-cited, long enough. ALT1 approved for April Fools'; original hook struck per discussion above. Relentlessly (talk) 13:55, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
