  • Length, date checks out. Close paraphrase not found, photo on commons. I prefer ALT1, but the hook fact of the two being governors needs a reference right after the sentence. GTG once that is fixed. --Soman (talk) 19:05, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
@Soman: ALT1 doesn't exist as a full sentence on the articles though. And inserting they were governors on the paragraph talking about their lives during the time of the statues creation may seem weird. The fact they are governors are referenced in the following sections. They did become governors but we're not so during the time they modeled for the statue. Maybe just go ahead with the first hook because that is referenced according to DYK's after the sentence rule which I find cumbersome. I went ahead and added the same citation from the paragraph about the statue to the first sentence of the paragraph about the first hook.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 19:11, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
Ok, for the original hook. --Soman (talk) 21:47, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
