Comment. His participation in the Minnesota Starvation Experiment might provide a more catchy hook. - Sitush (talk) 16:15, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

Agreed, this hook is dull anyway. I thought he compiled the first such bibliography, which turns out to be wrong. Solomon 7968 16:47, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

Sitush any idea for a possible hook? Solomon 7968 11:24, 23 March 2014 (UTC)

... Sounds good, added as ALT 1. Solomon 7968 16:57, 23 March 2014 (UTC)

Full review needed. Suggesting a slight rewording of ALT1—more compact—as ALT1a:

ALT1a: ... that bibliographer Henry Scholberg chose to participate in the Minnesota Starvation Experiment rather than continue working in a mental hospital? —BlueMoonset (talk) 03:58, 1 April 2014 (UTC)

Article is big enough and new enough. Hook is in article and cited. AGF on that it is in the book and other references. Article is cited and neutral. Hook ALT1a is short enough and has interest. Copyvio check reveals no matches. Good to go with ALT1a. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 06:53, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
