Cow tipping edit
A cow lying down can stand up whenever it chooses
- ... that cow tipping would require a minimum of 3,000 newtons (670 lbf) of pushing force, and that amount would be sufficient only if the cow (pictured) did not object?
- ALT1: ... that according to scientists, cow tipping would require between 4 and 14 coordinated people, unlike the depiction of the urban legend in film and television?

The GA article presents very interesting well researched information. It is long enough and posted within stipulated date from GA approval. Hook is catchy, cited and verified. No copy vio noted. Text is neutral. Img is freely licensed. QPQ done. GTG.Nvvchar. 07:54, 24 May 2016 (UTC)- Proposed ALT1 hook. Brianhe (talk) 06:06, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
- Either is fine with me, the promoter can decide which one is most suitable. Nvvchar, can you do your reviewer magic and verify ALT1 hook as sourced, also? (it is, but nominators can't review...). I think you need to do the little green check again so the promoters know this one is GTG. Montanabw(talk) 16:19, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
- ALT1 hook is also verified and GTG. Left to promoter to chose.Nvvchar. 01:41, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
