  • The date, reference, length, and article looks good. However, technically there weren't calls for him to be executed because he simply posted on Facebook. They were angry because he posted (supposedly) anti-Islamic things on Facebook. The hook should be rewritten to comply with this. Regards, Ruby 2010/2013 05:30, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
  • There is no requirement to reveal the entire context in the hook (not in the DYK rules or guidelines), and it is not hooky if we give too much information. An ALT: ALT1 ... that there were calls for Alexander Aan to be executed because of several of his posts on Facebook? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:53, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
  • I'm satisfied. Sorry for the delay. Second hook looks good to go. Ruby 2010/2013 16:02, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
