Nice job as usual, Nina. I'd say that it should be good to go right now since it meets all of the requirements for a DYK? nomination. Futurist110 (talk) 02:01, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
This hook is fairly boring. Isn't there something more suitable in the article?--Carabinieri (talk) 20:56, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
At first glance it might seem boring, but Sir (or Saint) Thomas More has a huge following, and every detail concerning his family is of interest to them. But if in light of that you still think it's boring, I'll look for something else. NinaGreen (talk) 21:04, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
I agree, but it can easily be made more interesting while retaining the mention of Thomas More (if NinaGreen thinks it is important). For example: Surtsicna (talk) 21:51, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
  • Looks good to me, although I'd suggest tweaking it a little:
  • That does make for a more interesting hook. Thanks to both of you for the suggestions. Either ALT1 or ALT2 is fine with me. NinaGreen (talk) 00:06, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Alright. I guess someone still needs to approve the hooks.--Carabinieri (talk) 02:56, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Hook facts check out for both ALT1 and ALT2; I prefer the wording of ALT2 provided the "a" before "formal" is deleted from the hook. Original hook has been struck as it is significantly less interesting than the two alternates. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:52, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
