  • I don't mind going the April Fool's route. Regarding the hook in case we don't do April Fools... ALT5 ... the the film ?, intended to propagate pluralism, was heavily criticized in Indonesia? The director meant/intended for it to be pluralistic. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:39, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
Pictogram voting keep.svg Good size, date. Indonesian references accepted AGF. However, if April Fool's is not considered, the hook needs to be clear and explicitly say that ? was a film. --Redtigerxyz Talk 18:38, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Added. I think we should leave it up to another editor if we want to go April Fools with this or not. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:56, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
I think ALT2 (without the second "?") would work for April Fool's, but not the other hooks. If the article is not to be run on April Fool's, then I think the original hook would be the one to go with, although I have yet to verify any of them. Gatoclass (talk) 07:48, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Come to think of it, having just the question mark linked guarantees that people will miss it. Might as well go with ALT1 or ALT5. Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:28, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
The two question marks together just look untidy and confusing. I don't think people would miss it with the one question mark, but if you're concerned about it, I guess you could use a bigger font. Gatoclass (talk) 09:23, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
  • That would work too, I guess. Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:33, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
  • ... that there is an article link in this hook ? for April Fools --Redtigerxyz Talk 12:40, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Will that screw with main page formatting? Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:15, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
A font size of 4 would be too big IMO - 3 would be more appropriate. Gatoclass (talk) 09:22, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Like this?
  • ALT6:... that 150,000 people in ten days saw ?
  • ALT7:... that Liberalism and Pluralism were rejected for ?

  • If we're going the April Fools route on this, there are no issues if I try to take this to GA and / FA in the meantime? Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:53, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
If you are OK with the April Fools route, please move the nomination to Wikipedia:April Fool's Main Page/Did You Know. --Redtigerxyz Talk 16:53, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

There seems to be no sensible reason for breaking the rules of DYK formatting, or of basic grammar. Kevin McE (talk) 23:05, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
