• Would displaced be a better verb? The point of the hook is to draw the reader in with the implication that Suder may have held some important record that these other guys broke. In fact, he was 24th on a top 25 list and these guys entered the list above him to move him out of the top 25.--

I don't think any of the proposed hooks are going to seem significant to readers unfamiliar with basketball and who don't know who JJ Redick is. That was the point I was making. If anything, their mention distracts from the main point and makes the hooks less accessible to general audiences (remember that we write even for audiences who aren't into basketball). It might be better to just leave their mentions out and just focus on the Top 25 thing without other names. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 07:21, 8 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

WP:DYKSG that states that plot summaries are exempted from the "needs a reference" requirement. As far as I am aware, there is no rule that plot summaries do not count towards the length requirement.

@Muboshgu: it does not count because you are using the script (which excludes tables and itemised prose) not because it does not fulfils the rules of length or any other rules.

Khaki green

which is a variant, it’s an army fatigues descriptor. The whole idea of the hook is to highlight the using of military colours for men and what is culturally perceived as feminine colour to women, although both recipients are civilians

The broken link can be found in c:Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Sudan#Government works

deeper than that, you're looking at the two awards and making a judgement call about the meaning behind why they made each award the color it is. what are you taking about! it’s good to be open minded but just keep it inside while doing that. It similar to the sky is blue; are you not familiar with the region we are talking about? Are pretend like this is open to interpretation! What are you talking about!. And this not here or there. It’s a green Khaki unless you are color blind and I want to go forward with this nomination unless you have a a clear reason.

You changed your reasons three times already! Do you have a problem with nomination from these regions? Or you just making up reasons to block this

1st you said not mentioned in the text, then shifted to citation, then the color is not Khaki enough for your and now accusing me of things that does not relate to fact!

Unlike you, I’m from the country and well versed with culture to make that judgement; and even if you don’t like my anecdote then stick to the facts and do your review professionally and don’t just make up things as you ago

I tried to be considered and respectfully but you clearly saw it as something else. What a stupid argument to block a nomination, go any find a new one as this one is not supported any of the policies you have cited!

plus you can reject the hook (if you outlined a problem with it) not the nomination, unless there is a a issue with the article. I can propose hooks until the cow comes and you can reject them but you can’t reject the nomination. How you became responsible of anything here is beyond me but please just do your job! ..FuzzyMagma (talk) 16:15, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

WP:BLUE is not literally about colors, but rather the idea that obvious facts do not necessarily need a source. For what it's worth however, there is disagreement about what colors count and do not count as khaki, so it would be better to have a source and be safe than sorry. This isn't an anti-Sudan bias or an anti-Africa bias, it's a Wikipedia policy and would apply regardless of what country the subject was from. Even if the subject was from the United States and talked about a US subject, original research would still not be accepted even if the article contributor is from the US and can vouch for its authenticity or reliability.

@Narutolovehinata5: I will reply in points to make my argument more coherent

• is the sky actually blue? That question might seem pedantic but this what we are discussing here. What is different between
  WP:NONFICTION
• My argument bias is for
  moving the goalpost and changing why the nomination was declined 3 times with 3 different reasons that was changed everytime it was challenged. So it need to be addressed within that context. And there is no policy against challenging such a behaviour and question the root of it, wether it’s implicit or explicit bias as I did not see any1 being rejected over Color vision
  .
• I can still propose alternative hooks but I want to get to why the current one is being rejected FuzzyMagma (talk) 13:27, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Your argument still does not change the fact that you declaring if it is khaki or not still counts as

WP:OR. Indeed, doing color analysis by yourself would be a prime example of OR. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 13:31, 4 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply

Computer monitors are notorious for having poor color rendition. People who actually care about color (artists, printers, professional photographers) use special tools to calibrate their monitors and the room lighting the monitor is being viewed under. If you're not doing that, then you're just guessing. This is why color matching systems like Pantone exist. If you go to a printer and say, "I want green", they'll look at you funny. If you say, "I want Pantone 15-0343", they'll know exactly what you mean. Also, different people perceive the same colors differently. The dress describes a classic example of this. I'm not an expert at military decorations, but I'd be astounded if there wasn't somewhere an official description of what the award looks like, including what color ribbons are used. That's what you should be using as a source for the colors.

I don’t think I agree with you as your definition of

WP:OR

can include paraphrasing. As for the 2nd reply, is that how you find out it’s green? Glad you settled on this reason. Anyway, it’s a dead end to continue arguing so below is an alternative hook

Plus, many Italian media have the bad habit of not linking their sources, so the citations I used couldn't help me on that front, either. Anyway, that's perfectly fine.

Hallo @Gog the Mild: and thanks for reviewing! I'll answer step by step:

• The title of the book is 'Corricolo' (a dialect word incomprehensible even to an Italian), a kind of Neapolitan tilbury, which was the carriage used by Dumas to visit Naples. On commons there are several prints and photos of the corricolo, and the corresponding category starts with the introduction of Dumas' book, so I think there is some relationship. Perhaps we could write neapolitan Corricolo pictured instead of pictured. We could also change the image to a more Dumasian one (on Commons there are a couple of better ones in this sense, with monk, lazarus, scugnizzi and other passengers, exactly as Dumas describes them);

Within the article the connection is clear. A reader of the hook will be baffled as to why a tilbury is pictured. If you want to propose an ALT with a different image, go for it; remember that the image has to be used in the article.

• Citation added;
• Here I am perplexed, because apart from the quotation about being one of the first literary accounts (which is implied by reading the whole article), the text says it all. I quote it here below in Italian.

La pizza è finita perfino nelle pagine di Alexandre Dumas (padre), ne Il Corricolo, una serie di racconti su Napoli del 1843. Attraverso la descrizione della pizza, lo scrittore francese offre una breve analisi socio-economica della città: “La pizza è: All’olio; Al lardo; Alla sugna; Al formaggio; Al pomodoro; Ai pesciolini. È il termometro gastronomico del mercato: aumenta o diminuisce il prezzo secondo il corso degli ingredienti suddetti, secondo l’abbondanza o la carestia dell’annata”.

Are you sure you did not click on another link? In any case, I have added three other links, one of which is the Italian Encyclopaedia (surely an RS) where I have also quoted the sentence referring to the testimonies, the second is an academic paper and the third is a blog, but it is interesting because it photographs the original text. Actually, that of Dumas in the Corricolo is the first literary testimony to the existence of Neapolitan pizza: regarding the year, on some sources you find 1835 (the year of his trip to Italy, on some 1841 (the year of the beginning of the publication of the book), , on others 1843 (the year of the end of the publication of the book)

I'm sure. I was referring to the source you provide in this template. Your additional references in the article resolve this.

• You are right here, the lead is definitively too short, I have expanded it a bit.

Looks good. As the lead is meant to be a summary of the main article, everything in the lead should also be in the article - usually in greater detail. Could you check that this is the case?

• Neapolitan pizza is mentioned towards the end of the article, before the quote, and as you can see from the references a not insignificant part of the book's notability comes from being one of the first sources on Neapolitan pizza, so this information is important.

Fair enough.

Hallo @Gog the Mild:, it's me again!

• Lead is referenced;

• Looking good. Nice image, needs a US PD tag. Change pizzajolo in the image caption to "pizza maker" - this is the English language Wikipedia. Likewise in the hook above. Nearly there I think. Gog the Mild (talk) 19:00, 13 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks, changed (but wouldn't be better "pizza baker"?)! Regarding the image, currently it has a {PD-old-100-1923} Tag. Looks like it is also valid in the US ("This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1928."). Is it OK?

• @Alessandro57 and Gog the Mild: I have some concerns about close paraphrasing. The following sentence from the article jumped out at me: The book is an extraordinary blend of literature and of real life, allowing the reader to grasp the city in its bustle and history. This corresponds to the following passage from the source: Le Corricolo, extraordinaire mélange de littérature et de vécu, permet de saisir Naples dans son bouillonnement et son histoire. Google translation: "Le Corricolo, an extraordinary mixture of literature and experience, allows us to grasp Naples in its ferment and its history." Checking further, I found more similarities between the article and the above-linked source, eg. Dumas only stayed in the city for three weeks, but this time was enough for him to capture the essence of the city (compare Dumas ne reste donc que trois semaines dans la ville, mais ce temps lui suffit pour saisir l’essence de la cité). Some other passages, eg. the sentence beginning This explains the book's effectiveness... have been reworded enough to avoid close paraphrasing, but clearly offer opinions that should be attributed to the source rather than stated as fact. I haven't checked out the whole article, these are just examples of some of the issues I found. Sojourner in the earth (talk) 09:57, 15 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply

  @Sojourner in the earth:, please check if now it is better. Sorry for what happened: usually I check the text with Earwig, but sometimes the application "forgets" some sources. :-( Alex2006 (talk) 12:29, 15 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply

  Earwig only detects exact matches, so it doesn't pick up on close paraphrasing at all, let alone from foreign-language sources. I don't believe the changes you made to the passages I mentioned are sufficient; you have replaced some words with synonyms but the sentence structure remains the same. These passages (and others in the article that are too close to the sources) should be completely rewritten in your own words. See

  WP:CLOP#How to write acceptable content for more advice. Sojourner in the earth (talk) 20:05, 15 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply

  ]

  In this case Earwig's usefulness is very limited. Thanks for posting the essay about close paragraphing, now I get it (I hope). However, consider that some statements, such as those on the "sentimental consonance" between Dumas and Naples, are not characteristics of a single source, but are universal. I found them written everywhere, in French and Italian sources, ranging from 1950 to ten years ago. Can you please check again, @Sojourner in the earth:? Thanks! Alex2006 (talk) 09:23, 16 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply

  ]

  I appreciate your efforts to resolve this. Let me first address your comment on the "sentimental consonance". The idea that Dumas's personality was similar to that of the people of Naples, and that this contributed to the success of the book, may be stated in numerous sources (I take your word for it), but it is still an opinion, and as such should not be stated in WP-voice as fact. You've already fixed this particular sentence, but there are others like it in the same paragraph, such as This makes Le Corricolo a valuable and still irreplaceable guide to discovering the city. The relevant policy is

  in-text attribution.

  To be blunt, I don't believe that extensive close paraphrasing can ever be "fixed" except by erasing the article and starting again. It introduces so many problems, and once you start playing the game of rewriting individual sentences in slightly different ways, you're only covering up those problems, not fixing them. However, other DYKers are more tolerant of this, so I suggest you wait for someone else to come along and conduct a new review. I would like to re-iterate, though, for the benefit of the next reviewer, that I only spot-checked a few sentences, and my first comment in this thread should not be taken as an exhaustive survey of the article's close paraphrasing problems.

  No, I have you to thank for explaining to me where the problems are in this article. If so, then the solution is to remove the whole critical part, and leave only the historical part, i.e. the facts. When it was written, where, why, etc. Remove the opinions, even if qualified and unanimous, and leave the facts. Do you agree, @Sojourner in the earth:?

  SnowFire, just so we're all clear the only reason I even worked on this article is that it was an appeal AND has been cited in other cases. If this was just a case with a man pooping his pants it would be super unethical to create the article about it, but two appeals later (Strong appealed to the Supreme Court) and some legal citations later I didn't feel that this was inappropriate and that's the only reason I nominated this for DYK.

  I respect that this is a good faith effort, of course. I still feel the article ends up reading somewhat lurid. Like I said, it's a weak objection, but I feel it's still an issue (and an "issue" is not quite the same as "problem", just, not every article that is keepable on Wikipedia is necessarily DYK-certified).

  While we're here - the "legal analysis" section seems to be primary sourced currently. Are there any sources that directly connect the Strakoff case with the Strong case? Both the current citations are before 2010. (I'm not saying delete it, because it does seem to potentially be relevant, but it would be nice to have some other source connect these cases.)

Hold up. What is this person's claim to notability as per Wikipedia:Notability (people), let alone Wikipedia:Notability (academics)? Highest academic rank is as an associate professor, the coverage in the press seems to be sparse, and much of the article is based on a summary on her opinions on this and that topic, or mentioning some small organizations she founded and leads. Not one award, not one piece of evidence about her significance in the field(s) she covers, not one single position as editor of a journal or leader of an academic body. Until and unless some of these criteria are shown to apply the bio should not be included on DYK, and should in fact be deleted as promotional cruft.

• Hello Dahn, thanks for adding your point of view. It was her foundation of Gender Centru and her work as a pioneer of gender studies in Moldova that means inclusion here is appropriate. I've added a three further sources, which have expanded the article somewhat. I would encourage you to think holistically about the field of gender studies - this article was written as part of an Women in Red theme (I'll cross-post this discussion here) - since the discipline itself is under-research and under-represented. I see you're a Romanian speaker - so I wonder if you have access to further sources, particularly scholarly reviews, that could help expand the article?

Do go over them and cite me the part that would make Bodrug-Lungu notable for this project: as compared to those criteria, and not some others we invent especially for her, how is she notable? (For instance, is she called a "pioneer of gender studies" by a leading newspaper, or is you calling her that, and asking us to comply with your claim?) Yes, I do speak Romanian, and yes, I have to say she is not notable even at that -- there are no hidden inaccessible sources that make her more notable than she currently seems; not that the burden of proving she is notable would fall on me -- it falls on you, as the author.

• Significant contributions are decided by sources independent of the subject, and which refer to scholarship. If they do not refer to scholarship, then it is you inferring the claim that they still should be taken into account. If you want to cite criterion 7 of WP:PROF, you will need to show sources (many, independent, and themselves of importance) explicitly sating why she is significant: "she is the leading expert in the field of" -- that sort of statement. Dahn (talk) 20:42, 18 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Incidentally, "Gender Centru" (a name that somehow manages to be ungrammatical in two languages) is a minuscule NGO, precisely as I mentioned; it has no virtually no coverage in the media, a website that is under construction, and seems mainly a one-person operation by Bodrug-Lungu. This is not an issue of gender bias -- it's an issue of claiming Bodrug-Lungu should have a puff-piece on wikipedia because there supposedly is a gender bias (which she herself makes a profession out of pointing out, incidentally). Dahn (talk) 07:32, 17 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• There is frequently a tendency to try to have articles about academics deleted if they are not about full professors. In this case, whatever Dahn maintains about lack of media coverage, the fact that the UN and the Council of Europe have referred to Bodrug-Lungu and/or to Gender Centru in multiple articles makes her notable. We should therefore proceed with the DYK as planned. (I had no difficulty in finding coverage of Bodrug-Lungu in the Moldovan media [3], [4]).--Ipigott (talk) 11:30, 17 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• But the level of coverage she’s received in the Moldovan media is trivial. In the first source, she is quoted as insisting on a gender quota for the government. In the second, she recites some platitudes. Neither source adds to any claim of notability. Which of her publications has made a scholarly impact? What academic prizes has she received? What discoveries has she made? Or are we reducing our notability standards on a whim?
• Moving on, simply invoking “the UN” does not exclude those sources from close scrutiny. All this does is attest she once appeared on a panel; surely not all panelists are notable, UN or not. This is a press release, of the type that agency puts out by the dozens.

1. Change "over the last couple of years" to "in the past few years"
2. Change "develop her cricket full-time in a high-performance programme, albeit as an unpaid student, and only during the academic year" to "improve her cricketing skills full-time in a high-performance programme, where she would participate as an unpaid student during the academic year".

@Miraclepine: Thanks for your helpful comments; I had overlooked checking the article with Earwig before nominating it. In Wikipedia bios, I like to include quotes, so that the subject speaks to the reader in her (or his) own voice, and to give the reader the benefit of verbatim comments by others. However, I accept that the original quotes I added to this article needed some trimming, which I have done. I will complete the upgrade of the other article, and the two QPQs, some time in the next week or so. Bahnfrend (talk) 09:47, 21 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Miraclepine: I'm now working on Sarah Bryce, but the work is proceeding more slowly than I'd expected, partly because the statistics on women's cricket at ESPNcricinfo were down for some time. I understand that they are back up again now. I will nominate for DYK within a week of my completing of the upgrade. Bahnfrend (talk) 14:54, 1 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Bahnfrend: It's been three weeks, and the Sarah article hasn't been nominated. And considering the article's expansion within the maximum week (8182 -> 9022) doesn't meet the 5x criteria and it's not a GA or a recent creation, you won't need to do a second QPQ. In the meantime I'll approve ALT0 and wait for a second reviewer to approve ALT1. ミラP@Miraclepine 16:52, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Miraclepine: The main problem was that most of the statistics were offline for several weeks, including after my last post. They're now back online again, but I've been in hospital in the last week or so and therefore progress has been impaired for another reason. Additionally, the pre-upgrade version of the Sarah Bryce bio was already of substantial length, and I'm not sure I would ever have been able to lengthen it 5 x. Anyway, if you allow me a few more days, I'll complete the upgrade, and then we can go ahead and DYK her sister's bio while also emboldening the link to this one.

@Miraclepine: I agree. The Sarah article was just too long to begin with. I have now finished expanding it, so you can send the Kathryn article to DYK. I only ask that the link to the Sarah article in the hook be emboldened as well (ie "... that at Under-17 level, cricketing sisters Kathryn and Sarah Bryce combined in an unbroken partnership of 336 for Scotland against Lincolnshire?"), given that both articles have recently been expanded, and that it's inappropriate to treat the sisters differently, even though only one of the articles is eligible for DYK.

@MaranoFan and Onegreatjoke: The LA Times article states, "Oh My God has bleary backing vocals processed nearly beyond recognition". So the hook needs some tweaking. Our hook says Adelle's vocals. Bruxton (talk) 02:28, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Bruxton, Adele actually sings all of the vocals on this song but I understand your concerns so I have now tweaked it to something more explicitly stated in the source.--NØ 03:05, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Bruxton (talk) 03:12, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This seems unnecessary to me. The vocal processing (and the unrecognizability for that matter) is an objective fact and can easily be verified if you play the song. We can save the attribution for the article and keep it out of the hook, in my opinion. Regards.--NØ 04:24, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

A review is akin to an editorial so it is an opinion piece. We probably have to qualify it or we are stating the opinion as fact. It may seem objective, but opinions are subjective: do we have other reviews which also call the backing vocals "processed nearly beyond recognition"? Bruxton (talk) 14:27, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Disagreed. The vocals are objectively processed and unrecognisable and you just have to play the first few seconds of the song to hear them. "The song is good/bad" would be an opinion, this is not. Your proposed hook is not interesting or DYK-worthy so I'll stick with the one already approved by another reviewer. That’s all I have to say about that, and the promoter can make the final decision about which hook they prefer.—NØ 15:34, 20 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• Extremely intersting hook. Article and hook all meet criteria. Would say it could also run in a more concise ALT1: ... that meteorological phenomena have recently been observed in exoplanet atmospheres? I only say this because this version might be even more interesting to general readers, but ALT0 is good to go, as is, already. QPQ just needs to be done and then it'll be greenlit.

@Soulbust, thank you for the review; it's great to hear that you enjoyed the hook! Thanks for suggesting an alt hook and image as well. I'll add your suggested hook to the nomination, but I'd still like to include some facts in the hook instead of trimming them all out. How about ALT2: ... that meteorological phenomena, such as wind speeds of 2 km/s (1.2 mi/s) around HD 189733 b (pictured), have recently been observed in exoplanet atmospheres? I guess that one is a tad more concise while still including the interesting fact. As for the picture, I'll add that to the nomination as well, but I need to add it to the article first. For QPQ, this is actually my first nomination for DYK (and one of my first article edits in general); I would still be happy to review another nomination to help out!

@Varmint256: Sounds good! Didn't realize it was your first nom, so definitely good to go for the DYK section since QPQ can be waived here. The ALT0 or ALT2 both work.

@BorgQueen:@Bruxton: Finally was able to cite most of the statements and remove others, but there was one statement that I'm not exactly sure how to cite - the last sentence in the 3rd paragraph. By the definition of exometeorology, an exoplanet needs an atmosphere in the first place to have time-varying conditions in that atmosphere. However, I have not been able to find any studies that state that or contradict that in a peer-reviewed context. Thus, I wanted to ask you Bruxton - why did you add the citation needed tag to that sentence? Was there anything specific you hoped I could find to support that statement? Also, to everyone who reviewed my nomination, thanks for being patient. Is it still eligible for DYK if I can get all the citation needed tags taken care of?

WP:DYKSG#D2 and the nominator has had 1.5 months to correct the issues. If the sentences air circulation and weather patterns can only exist and redistribute a planet's heat if that planet has an atmosphere.

• The article is new and long enough. The prose is quite enjoyable. It cites excellent sources but takes too much liberty with them. For example, the cited source does not say that the "pressure of being Chris' younger brother had put Webber in a nearly suicidal state." It mentions neither the pressure of being Chris's younger brother nor any suicidal state. Also, the hook is not clear about who these men are. I had not heard of them before. Who is Chris Webber? Who is Larry Bird? Record in what? I suggest ensuring that the article says what the cited sources say and that the hook be clearer about who/what it is about.

• Comment. This is not a full review, but there are some issues with the hook. First off, if you're using a YouTube video of non-trivial length, it is respectful of others' time to point out the specific spot to check. Are you citing the comments from 7:55 - 8:30 or so? Because if so, I'd argue the hook is somewhat misrepresenting what Warriner said there. He said it was one of his proudest achievements, yes, but he clarifies that it was because it was essentially a duo project. Shorn of context in the hook, however, one would presume that his pride is due to it being one of his best creations, rather than "much done with few people." This changes the tone. And more generally... I'm not sold the hook suggestion is all that interesting anyway. "Did you know a programmer who worked hard says their own work is great" isn't really very unique or interesting, it's basically expected that they'll like their own works. (Not to mention that "one of" really defangs the impact - Warriner seems like a cool guy, but he's not THAT famous, and this is an off-the-cuff remark. Lots of works can be "one of" the best.)

  It is better, but maybe more alts would still be good. I don't think you need the "The" capitalized and part of the link. I'd also question the relevance of "mad suggestion" referenced to a press release - it's a little promotional and also still uninteresting (what was so mad about it? To a general audience, that is. I presume the answer is really "the GBA was considered underpowered" for this, but I doubt many main page viewers would catch on.). And is "designers" really the best word? I'd suggest something more like this, at least if keeping the same basic fact:

Speaking as a non-reviewer, I did find it interesting that a largely two-person team ported a game to the GBA (small indie team-sized teams weren't so common back then), but maybe it's just because I have an interest in video games, so I'm probably not the most impartial person to give an opinion.

@Onegreatjoke: Hi, I recently suggested user @KrivisKrivaitis: to participate in the DYK procedure as I noticed that he regularly create new content of high quality, but he is still inexperienced in this. I added the reference template to the article where it is necessary to support this hook (my edit) and here is a quote from the Lithuanian reference which support this hook: "1910 m. įkūrė privačią kliniką ir ginekologinę ligoninę, kurioje neturtingos moterys buvo gydomos nemokamai." (English: In 1910, he established a private clinic and gynecologists' hospital where poor women were treated free of charge; link to the reference).

• While the article meets DYK requirements and a QPQ has been provided, the hook as currently written is rather bland and requires specialist knowledge to really get it. If I were you, I'd probably focus more on the Metropolitan Opera angle as that's one that's more well-known and probably more familiar among non-specialists, as basically saying "performer did his job at a particular festival" isn't really something that would interest someone who already isn't interested in the topic. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 02:05, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply
  ]

  I am sorry but don't understand. The Met is the destination of the hook, no? We can add a year to the Met performance, and can add that it was a live broadcast. Any world premiere is noteworthy, I think, even if you don't know Glyndebourne, but for others it's one of the most notable opera festivals, which was mentioned in hooks before (Liselotte Hammes for example, Marina de Gabaráin for another, - the greatest singers appear there, many having made their career from there). Gabaráin's lead (article not by me) says: "Marina de Gabaráin ... was a Spanish mezzo-soprano. Her international career began at Glyndebourne in 1952, where she appeared in Rossini's La Cenerentola as Angelina (Cinderella), which became her signature role."

  Right now we have a hook on the Main page about a singer saying more or less only that she sang well but was fat. Can we for a change inform, about a career beginning in Glyndebourne and leading via Australia to the Met? - If that's too long, we can skip Australia, but I think that it's particularly interesting as the composer is from there. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:24, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

There's probably an overestimation here about how much broad audiences would understand about such things or find it interesting. It's one of the DYK criterion that a hook needs to be interesting even to those with no specialist knowledge, and as currently written, the hook doesn't meet that. That's not to say that the article can't meet that criterion and like I said I think a hook focused specifically on the Met might solve my concerns. But remember this: we write the hooks for broad audiences, even those who don't care about opera and classical music. We don't write hooks for the nominator. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:03, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

We will probably disagree. Every world premiere is a distinct interesting fact, and 2017 is still rather recent news. ... that countertenor Christopher Lowrey took part in the world premiere of Brett Dean's Hamlet? - that would be an acceptable hook. Everything else is extra, and provides context. I find it astonishing, and worth telling the audience also ...

• ... that this piece by an Australian composer (with a recognizable title) was premiered in England at all
• ... that it was premiered at the Glyndebourne Festival which to know doesn't hurt
• ... that this young man made the typical start for a world career, being noticed in Glyndebourne
• ... that a production travels from Glyndebourne to Australia and the Met (I didn't know that!)

To focus on the Met would be undue weight because there he only performed minor roles. Why not supply e bit of extra information? - Btw, the "fat singer" hook was modified, and I felt understood - which feels good! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:27, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Such a hook is too reliant on specialist information, and we try as much as possible to avoid that. It may appeal to you but it does not appeal to non-opera fans, and Wikipedia isn't the Operapedia. You even admit in the above that he "made the typical start for a world career", which means his circumstances aren't even unusual. What makes him any different from the many other international opera artists that got their big break at Glyndebourne and performed internationally elsewhere? I'm sure Lowrey is a talented man and deserves to reach where he got to be, but this hook appeals to a very small niche, which goes against the DYK criteria. What I mean to say is: it proves his talent, but it doesn't make him atypical from any other person who were noticed at Glyndebourne and performed in a country different from their own. It's no different from a hook about how Carrie Underwood was discovered when she won American Idol and has since performed outside the United States. It shows Underwood is talented, but it doesn't make Underwood different from the many other American singers who have performed outside America.

I don't think the hook would make much sense to people who don't know Lowrey or Dean. Sure, Hamlet is a recognizable name, but the hook doesn't make it clear how Lowrey being in this particular world premiere is any different from any other actor who was also in said premiere, or how this version of Hamlet is any more special than the many other versions of Hamlet to make Lowrey's participation intriguing by itself. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 12:11, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I didn't mean the hook to run without context, but it says a lot about the singer:

• He is a countertenor.
• He is ready to take part in a new piece.
• He was ready to leave home.

I will never understand why people would have to know Dean when there is a link. Those interested in new composers can click, and the others can skip the hook anyway. Trying to meet what everybody knows already is for me the exact opposite of "Did you now ...? - expecting a no for an answer, and supplying as much unknown stuff as possible. There's a world of opera to explore beyond the ten composers and 50 operas that "everybody" should know, and for some, even countertenor might be new. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:34, 23 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• puffy, as does "a faithful remake" (according to whom?). I would recommend coming up with alternative hooks, or revising the existing one. Morgan695 (talk) 04:12, 27 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply

  • Morgan695, I am open to other ideas, would you have any suggestions for alt hooks? But the sources I am familiar with (cited in the article) are pretty consistent on both counts - they consider 1994's game "classic" and the recent remake quite faithful. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:24, 27 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    • Piotrus My understanding is that because DYK is being stated in "Wikipedia's voice", any subjective statement needs to be attributed to the person or group of people who made that statement. I think ALT0 can be used if it is revised to reflect that; I'm at a bit of a loss for alternate hooks, since this generally seems to be a pretty unremarkable remake.

      • I'm thinking of something related to the playable races, like "besides humans, playable races include orcs, draconians and ant-people?" Or something like "players can create a non-magical wizard and win through military force?" ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:02, 27 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
        • Zxcvbnm, We could but those are pretty run-of-the-mill. Since this is a remake, I think at least one of the reviews mentioned how the magic system of both games was inspired by Magic the Gathering, which could be a fun and more unusual factoid to mention. Do you have any thoughts on the hook I proposed? I stand by my view that essentially all reviews I found agree on both counts here (classic and faithful). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 00:38, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
          • Maybe mentioning the sheer amount of playable species? It may not be 100% original but it's still a somewhat unique aspect for a modern game. I think the original hook is simply stating an obvious fact, so it's not something that will intrigue people at all. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 00:52, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I'd say everything was fine and that this was approved for any of the three hooks, with a personal preference for ALT1 because of its simplicity, and because it's less terrifying than ALT2, but I'm a bit concerned with the earwig result that suggests this biography leans heavily on https://www.historylink.org/File/9858 - everything is sourced and there's nothing egregious, but I don't feel familiar enough with the nuances of our current policies to wave this through on my own authority.

  New reviewer here. I'm a bit uncomfortable with the 40% copyvio on earwig. I understand that most of it is direct quotations, but I think you should reword some stuff to get that down to 32% at most. Here are some possibilities:

• His uncle was the Supreme Court justice Louis Brandeis → His uncle was Louis Brandeis, a Supreme Court justice
• While there, he met Irma "Sally" Ringe → While working there, he met his future wife Irma "Sally" Ringe
• They relocated first to White Salmon, Washington, where he worked for an orchardist and a second child, Peter, was born in 1946 → They relocated first to White Salmon, Washington, where he worked for an orchardist and where, in 1964, their second child Peter was born.

I'll leave the rest to you. Here's the earwig link if you want to compare. I'm marking QPQ as done. I also prefer ALT1. 〜 Festucalex • talk 13:04, 3 June 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks for pinging me. Again, this one is a dull hook ... it's not unusual for courts of last resort in common-law countries to turn cases down.
