• ... that Cegléd water jugs were the highlighted musical instrument of two Romani music festivals in Hungary?

• New enough, long enough, meets core content policies. I can't see the hook fact anywhere. Perhaps this would be hookier though: ALT1: ... that Cegléd water jugs have been used as both water containers and musical instruments? --Jakob (talk) 19:05, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
  • The hook fact is right there, in a rather small article. Anyway, I slightly edited the text to match the hook. And the fact that two festivals were devoted to water jugs is IMO much more prominent than the boring fact that you can play music even on toothpicks. -M.Altenmann >t 04:11, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
  • Okay, though I really don't understand your last sentence. I think ALT1 is much more interesting. Your call, though. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 17:59, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
    • What I meant is there is nothing special that you can play music on water jugs. People play on petrol barrels, washboards, saws, glasses half-filled with water, and whats not. On the other hand, I did't hear about music festivals dedicated exclusively to washboards. -M.Altenmann >t 03:04, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
