Wolfhouse Run

[edit]

Moved to mainspace by Jakec (talk). Self nominated at 18:39, 29 October 2014 (UTC).

  • ALT2:... that Wolfhouse Run is named for the lair of a human Wolf?
(We could have used his for Halloween. Too bad.) EEng (talk) 01:51, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
Yeah, ALT2 is also awesome. --Jakob (talk) 12:39, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
But of course we run the risk it will get pulled off main page -- Wikipedia_talk:Did_you_know#When_the_humor-impaired_become_admins. (Sorry, but this is my new pet peeve.) EEng (talk) 17:44, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
  • I find all but ALT2 extremely confusing. Am I supposed to know what a "wolf house" is so that I can compare it with a "human house"? I've never heard that term, and google gets me hits on Jack London's home. Support ALT2. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:11, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
  • @Maury Markowitz: A wolf house is a den of wolves and a human house is a house which is inhabited by humans (in this case a cabin). Personally, I imagine that ALT2 would be a huge hit...until one of the humor-impaired admins pulls it. --Jakob (talk) 13:46, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
Sure, but that's not a real term, "wolf house". Let's go with ALT2, they'll have to get past me and EE if anyone raises a stink. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:49, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
Fine by me. ALT2 is even better anyway. --Jakob (talk) 13:53, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
If anyone doesn't like it, we'll HUFF, and we'll PUFF, and we'll BLOW THEIR HOUSE DOWN. EEng (talk) 03:54, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
@Maury Markowitz and EEng: For the sake of form, there should be a full review. --Jakob (talk) 01:05, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
I'm afraid I can't now because I wrote the hook. Any chance of an image, so it can run in the first slot? EEng (talk) 03:54, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
DKY check is clean, lots of cites, hook is directly cited, length is fine. Date gets a bye. Good to go! Maury Markowitz (talk) 12:48, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
