• ... that products from the Province of Varese include goat's milk cheeses, a local variety of asparagus, chestnuts, berries, wine and honey?

5x expanded by Thine Antique Pen (talk) and Cwmhiraeth (talk). Nominated by Cwmhiraeth (talk) at 09:46, 26 August 2015 (UTC).

• 5x expanded, long enough, neutral, verifiable (AGF since two major sources are offline), no close paraphrasing or copyvios detected. Hook short enough and cited (AGF for book source). I question how interesting the hook is, though. Few people would find a listing of local products interesting, barring an oddity on the list. On the other hand, the history section of this article is quite interesting. Would it be possible to propose a hook from that information? ~ Rob^Talk 21:55, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

I didn't write the history section or have access to the source, but how about

• ALT1 ... that the Roman settlement of Castelseprio in the Province of Varese was destroyed by the House of Visconti in the thirteenth century? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:23, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

• AGF on offline source. That hook is much more interesting. ALT1 good to go. ~ Rob^Talk 09:52, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
