Did you know nomination

[edit]

    General: Article is new enough and long enough
    Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

    Hook eligibility:

    • Cited: Yes
    • Interesting: No - The backhalf of the hook is not particularly interesting, and the whole premise of relying on his relations is not a great way to advertise the man. I suggest finding an ALT.
    QPQ: Done.

    Overall: Needs a new hook. SounderBruce 05:27, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    @SounderBruce: both Francis Scott Key and Thomas Hunt Morgan are level 5 vital articles whilst John Hunt Morgan is known for Morgan's Raid. There is more at Template:Hunt–Morgan family tree. Anyway, I have added more hooks. Sahaib (talk) 08:14, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    ALT1 could be trimmed to remove Paris, while ALT2 needs some grammar work. Both are preferable to ALT0. SounderBruce 05:29, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
