- Thanks. The AlT1 Hook needs a little more expansion with words "but also from India and many other Commonwealth countries". It could read as ALT2 hook: ... that not only casualties from the United Kingdom but also from India and many other Commonwealth countries are buried in the Imphal War Cemetery? You are welcome to copy edit.--Nvvchar. 07:49, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
- Okay, I gave the article a light copy edit. While I designed ALT1 to provoke curiosity, your suggested ALT2 tells all. Let the viewer read the article to find out who else is buried there. It has been my experience that viewers will click a DYK to satisfy their curiosity.
