Charb

  • ... that the cartoonist Charb (pictured) created the figures Maurice and Patapon during the trial against Maurice Papon?

Created by Iselilja (talk). Self nominated at 23:48, 13 January 2015 (UTC).

  • Considering that the subject was murdered in the most talked-about attack of the time, the hook seems rather quaint. Yoninah (talk) 22:18, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
Heh, yeah, I know. I am very open to alternative suggestions. In some ways he is a bit too known right at the moment, "DYK that he was murdered?" Yes! - but people forget quickly. Iselilja (talk) 22:48, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
  • Article is new enough, long enough, and well referenced, except for one place which I tagged in the article. I prefer Yoninah's ALT1. There seem to be several other editors who made significant contributions. They should be added to the credit list. -Zanhe (talk) 07:35, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

I like it quaint and simple: ALT2: ... that the French satirical cartoonist Charb (pictured), who created the figures Maurice and Patapon, was a victim of the Charlie Hebdo shooting? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:24, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
  • Citation added, now good to go. I still prefer ALT1, but ALT2 works too. Image is public domain. I think this should be a lead hook, as a tribute to the high-profile victim of terrorism. -Zanhe (talk) 07:03, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
  • Thanks to all who have followed up this with hook suggestions and reviews. I have now included three other editors as contributors; a bit random since there are many editors with small parts . Iselilja (talk) 23:00, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
  • Promoter's comment: promoted with Alt1
