interesting article on good sources! - The hook is interesting, but perhaps telling not so much about Rahn as could be? I am not enthusiastic about the picture, - it takes attention away from the article subject and is not good in small size. If taken, it has to appear in the article. It's free, and the hook is sourced. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:18, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
- Surely the aim of a DYK hook is simply to state one interesting fact, and punchiness is a virtue? I have never tried to use a hook to outline the whole subject, although as it happens the words "Nazi proconsul" say quite a lot! Moonraker (talk) 15:40, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
- It was just a question. Sure, Nazi proconsul says a lot about him, a lot negative. Ofline sources accepted AGF,
