Santa with Muscles

Created/expanded by Miyagawa (talk). Self nom at 20:41, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

  • Symbol confirmed.svg I did some copyediting to make up the 50 characters for a 5x expansion. Age, length, hook all check out now. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 15:34, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Hmmm, cute, yes, but, the rules include that "hooks that focus unduly on negative aspects of living individuals or promote one side of an ongoing dispute should be avoided." I haven't watched these discussions much so I don't know if I'm right, but it sounds like it runs afoul here. Wnt (talk) 04:13, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
  • I disagree with Wnt. This type of hook is far different than the character assassinations or criminal implications which are usually struck from DYK. ALT1 is not going to get as many hits as the original. Yoninah (talk) 10:50, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
  • I have to agree with Yoninah on this. The hook is not bad enough to run afoul of that rule. Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:33, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
