@Piotrus: The hook needs to be rewritten: it seems to lack focus (mentioning two hook facts instead of one), and it's hard to read. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 13:07, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
- Seriously? That's a very personal view. I re-read the hook and I think it is fine. And I did write ~~1,000 hooks in the past, so it's not like I am an n00b. Let's wait for a proper review and a 3O on that. (And if I got a few days, maybe I'll make it a double-article DYK, addressing your issue, at least, partially). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:54, 31 October 2018 (UTC)
- I meant to say is that the current hook could be rewritten to make it tighter. The hook itself is interesting, it just needs a bit of improvement. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:16, 31 October 2018 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5: I can't figure out how to make it tighter, but I wrote the other article I mentioned and linked it in the hook. Perhaps this addresses your concerns? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:14, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
I think the hook reads fine, and is very hooky. I formatted the DYK template and credits. Do you have another QPQ to offer for the second article? Yoninah (talk) 21:59, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: Oh, didn't think we needed two for that, but sure, here we go: Template:Did you know nominations/Helza Cameu. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:50, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
