• Hi, I came by to promote this, but I honestly don't see how the hook has broad international appeal. If it runs without the image, it will have almost no interest IMO. Perhaps some interesting fact about the house itself could be added? Yoninah (talk) 18:34, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah: We could do something like one of these

• ALT1 ... that the Hynson-Ringgold House (pictured), the current official residence of the president of Washington College, was owned by James Pearce who set the boundaries of Texas?
• ALT2 ... that the paneling from the east room of the Hynson-Ringgold House (pictured), the current official residence of the president of Washington College, was sold to the Baltimore Museum of Art in 1932?
• ALT3 ... that the president of Washington College, whose official residence is the Hynson-Ringgold House (pictured), was the principal of the college until 1922?

Do any of these interest you? --Guerillero | Parlez Moi 21:43, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

• Thank you! ALT2 would make a great lead hook! ALT1 is also good. @KAVEBEAR: could you review these hooks so I can promote them? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 09:54, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
