... that
Shapur II invaded
Armenia twice in response to Pap of Armenia's restoration as the king but was beaten by both the Armenians and Romans? Source: King of Armenia section of the article.
ALT1: ... that Pap of Armenia was murdered by
Traianus under
Valens's orders because of the fear that he was colluding with the
Persians? Source: Fall section of the article.
ALT2: ... that Pap of Armenia survived an assassination attempt by
Roman legions during a battle, but was later murdered by the Romans during a feast? Source: [1]
Overall: @
Onegreatjoke: I like ALT2 the most, so I hope that's what will appear on the Main Page. Before I promote this hook, I'm going to need you to provide specific citations for the main hook and ALT1.

Unlimitedlead: For alt0 it's citation 14 while alt1 is 30,34, and 50. I would also like to change alt0 to be alt3 "... that
Shapur II invaded
Armenia in response to Pap of Armenia's restoration as the king?"as the first hook is incorrect.

Unlimitedlead: I also hope ALT2 will be the one selected. Maybe I'm biased because it was the one I wrote, but I do believe that it would catch the most interest from readers with no prior knowledge of Pap. ALT0 seems to be more about Shapur, and ALT1 is technically incorrect because Traianus didn't personally murder Pap.

Thanks for your imput. I'm approving only ALT0 and ALT2 then, with preference for the latter.
