Poking my nose in while promoting hooks to prep - this hook seems to not really be about the bolded subject, which is aid climbing. The hook reads as though the bolded article should be Lynn Hill or maybe free climbing. Is there another hook possible that focuses more directly on aid climbing? Premeditated Chaos ( talk) 22:21, 14 July 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Premeditated Chaos:, I understand your point but I offered that hook as the whole affair was one of the biggest moments in modern rock climbing history. Some alternatives are:

Bruxton ( talk) 19:39, 23 June 2024 (UTC). reply

• This is only a preliminary review for now as the article needs a copyedit when it comes to wording and missing punctuation. However, the article does seem long enough and is adequately sourced and a QPQ has been done. My preferred hook is ALT1, but it doesn't exactly match the article or the source so it might fail at WT:DYK or ERRORS. ALT0 could probably be modified to say he never played organized football before signing up as the current wording might be too vague. ALT2 might need additional context especially for readers from countries where Judaism is not a common religion: my suggestion would be to propose a new hook that explains his 39 jersey and how it related to the Sabbath. Narutolovehinata5 ( talk · contributions) 13:37, 28 June 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Narutolovehinata5: Thank you for checking out this nomination.. I did some copyediting but it is hard for me to find my own errors so I would appreciate you calling them out. For hook ideas I prefer that someone click the article to discover rather than getting in the weeds with specificity in the hook. For fifth and sixth hook ideas:

ALT4: ... that a wide receiver on the Texas A&M Aggies football team wears number 39 to symbolize the tasks or items which Jews should avoid during the Sabbath?

ALT5: ... that American football player Sam Salz wears number 39 to remind him of "lamed tet melachot"?

Bruxton ( talk) 15:10, 28 June 2024 (UTC) reply

ALT4 sounds good to me. The article is improved but the wording still seems a bit weird (for example, "As a young boy Salz never watched college football because it is played on the Shabbat and he is an observant orthodox Jew." and "He was not invited to join the football team so he practiced by himself within sight of the football team and eventually earned a roster spot.") I don't have access to the NYT source; is 2003 mentioned in that article? Narutolovehinata5 ( talk · contributions) 23:18, 28 June 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Narutolovehinata5: Excellent. You can archive a link to read text it by putting the url in archive.ph. Here is a link to the NYT article. I got 2003 from "Salz, 21, became obsessed with playing college football at a young age, for reasons he can’t exactly pinpoint." It is a 2024 article and 2024-21 is c. 2003. Regarding the two sentences, I do not see the weirdness to their structurel; if you do please edit them. Bruxton ( talk) 23:47, 28 June 2024 (UTC) reply

Maybe it's just me not being a native speaker but something feels off about the first sentence to me, but it could just be that it's correct to a native speaker but sounds weird to a non-native one. The second one could probably be rewritten to something like "As he was not invited to join the football team, he practiced by himself within sight of them. He eventually earned a roster spot." Maybe something like that? Narutolovehinata5 ( talk · contributions) 09:03, 30 June 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Narutolovehinata5: I reordered the first sentence you called out and I used your language for the second sentence. Bruxton ( talk) 22:44, 4 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Now that I think about it, ALT4a is quite long. Would it be okay if it got shortened to ALT4a ... that a Texas A&M Aggies football wide receiver wears number 39 to symbolize the tasks or items which Jews should avoid during the Sabbath? "Football" could even be dropped if possible, but given American football's relatively niche popularity outside of North America, just "wide receiver" without context might not make much sense, hence the addition of "football" (or even "college football" if really needed).

Cool. I'll think about hook options over the next few days but as long as the copyediting has been completed I can probably complete the review. Narutolovehinata5 ( talk · contributions) 13:31, 7 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Apologies for the delay in reviewing. The article meets requirements for newness and length, and I did not find any close paraphrasing. QPQ has been done and verified. All major statements in the article match the sources, and all hooks are mentioned in the article and verified in the sources. There is one statement in the article, however: the "thought to be the only orthodox Jewish football player in NCAA Division I" fact might change in the future, so the mention in the article may need a qualifier. I also note that one of the sources says he's the first known orthodox Jewish college football player, but given the recent brouhaha over "first" hooks it might be the safest option not to go with that. Some variation of ALT4 (I will leave the exact wording to the promoter) is probably the best option here as the most unusual or interesting; my original preference (ALT1) is unsuitable due to not being directly mentioned in the article, as well as not meeting the "unlikely to change" criterion. Narutolovehinata5 ( talk · contributions) 10:35, 11 July 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Narutolovehinata5: Good catch I attributed the statement Bruxton ( talk) 04:21, 12 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Okay, I think there should be no more issues here. The only approved option here is some variant of ALT4; I will leave it to the promoter on what wording to use, or whether to mention Salz by name in the hook. I do wonder if a hook that goes "that in 2023, the Atlanta Jewish Times suggested that Sam Salz is the only Orthodox Jewish player in NCAA Division I college football?" or even "that The Times of Israel suggests that Sam Salz may be college football's first known Orthodox Jewish player?", but given both are "first" or "only" hooks and thus are likely to be a whole can of worms, they're only food for thought and the nomination can proceed with ALT4 or some variant. Narutolovehinata5 ( talk · contributions) 00:36, 14 July 2024 (UTC) reply

The fact that he's an orthodox jew playing football is the story, so we'd be silly to shy away from mentioning that in the hook. I think we'd be OK with a "first" as long as we qualify it with "believed to be" or something to that effect. The Jewish Times says "Salz is believed to be the only Orthodox Jew to play Division I college football this season (if not, the first-ever)", which seems like an appropriate level of hedging. As for the 39-based hooks, I'm torn between the significance of 39 being lost on most of our readers vs piquing their interest ("what's so special about 39?") RoySmith (talk) 13:18, 14 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Elsewhere, Black Kite said:

"Suggests" and "known" and "may be" are really vague though, aren't they? You would have thought that given the ridiculous amount of statistical trivia about the game, there would be a definitive source.

I'm sure they keep all kinds of statistics about on-field performance, but I wouldn't expect they have data on the religious affiliation of every player. And even if they did, who's to say what an "Orthodox Jew" is? It's kind of a self-identify thing. RoySmith (talk) 19:17, 14 July 2024 (UTC) reply

The issue here is all the recent brouhahas with "first" or "only" hooks and how much scrutiny they get. If we go with that angle, we want to be sure we're right and not have to have another long discussion about how we promoted a factual error, even if objectively this was the more interesting option.

Adding an alt here:

@ Bremps: I really like the "living his best life" quote. Maybe there's a way to incorporate both. Something like...that an escaped donkey "living his best life" may have killed a mountain lion? I'm reluctant to go with a "may have killed" hook though, since others have pointed out that the article is already pretty heavy on speculation. For what it's worth, this reference indicates that donkeys killing mountain lions is rare, but not unheard of.

User:Gobonobo I get it, I also like to cleanse my DYK hooks of speculation. If you're willing to stomach the "possibly", that's not a bad hook. Bremps ... 02:12, 7 July 2024 (UTC) reply

Yeah I also really like the "living his best life" quote, so definitely keen to place that in the hook. Also completely understand the reluctance to lean on speculation here re. the mountain lion, but it is a very interesting aspect of this story. Potentially something along the lines of that an escaped donkey "living his best life" with an elk herd was reported to have killed a mountain lion? I think it's important to note why he's living his best life (i.e. with the elk herd); without that caveat I'm not sure how relevant the quote is to the hook.

• @ Orchastrattor: Here's a couple excerpts from the text. It goes further into this in preceding and subsequent paragraphs:

  The colonial public was chilled by her [Wong Sau Ying's] exacting premeditation. The ‘bobbed-hair woman’ had arrived in Kuala Lumpur only that morning. Some reports said that she came from Canton; others that she was from Penang, and fluent in Malay. They were, above all, obsessed by the way she looked. [...]
  The year 1925 was when the ‘Modern Girl’ became a global phenomenon, and in this the women of Asia took the lead. [...] There were stories of ‘bobbed-hair riots’ as far away as Mexico City, of rival ‘anti-bobbed-hair leagues’ and ‘bobbed-hair defence leagues’. [...]
  The ‘Modern Girl’ was increasingly linked to a dangerous, disordered modernity; to nihilism and to anarchism. As one expatriate journal put it: ‘The now notorious “bobbed-haired” lady might just as well have turned up in Venezuela or Tibet for all the relation that her “mission” had to events in Malaya... Politics virtually do not exist in this country.’ The Straits Times brayed for a system of ‘identity tickets’ to indicate who was a loyal subject of His Majesty King George V and who was not. There were suddenly other sightings of ‘strange’ young women in Kuala Lumpur. [...]
  At the root of the case was her ‘new style’.

• Hello, Will629. The nomination is timely and the article is long enough with no copyvios detected. Several entries in the Discography table, as well as the Awards and nominations table, appear unsourced, though. These would require references. I think it can use some tweaking for catchiness; how about this?-- N Ø 19:35, 26 June 2024 (UTC) reply
  • ALT1: ... that Windy Zhan (pictured) of the Hong Kong girl group After Class has been learning and practising vocal music since the age of five?
    • MaranoFan, thank you very much for your prompt review. I have corrected the issues and your question suggestion is very good, thank you! May I ask what do I need to do for using your ALT1 suggestion, as I am new for DYK in English Wikipedia. Thank you!-- Will629 ( talk) 19:52, 26 June 2024 (UTC) reply
      • I have struck the first hook so ALT1 will be considered by the promotor, no further action required. Thank you for correcting the issues so quickly. Foreign-language reference accepted in good faith, this is good to go. Welcome to the English Wikipedia and best of luck here!-- N Ø 20:02, 26 June 2024 (UTC) reply

          • @ Will629 and MaranoFan: is this unusual or interesting enough? Out of interest, I just looked at a number of other famous singers—all had started before the age of seven. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 ( talk) 21:35, 16 July 2024 (UTC) reply
