User:Rjanag/DYK mantra

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

At DYK, a hook with one interesting fact is better than a hook with two boring facts.

The shorter a hook is, the more chance I'll read it and click it.

A hook should pick one interesting thing about the topic and bring that out. Any unnecessary details or frills only distract from the main point and make the hook less interesting.

(From User:Victuallers:) Hooks are like exotic underwear, they shouldn't show everything.
