• ... that Paul Connolly currently lives in Ireland and works for Ireland's commercial television station TV3 as an investigative journalist, radio personality, and documentary maker?

• ... that Paul Connolly lives in Ireland as an investigative journalist and documentary maker for the commercial TV station TV3 after his career in the radio station 98FM as a radio personality? (if he is no longer a radio personality)

• ... that Paul Connolly lives in Ireland concurrently as an investigative journalist and documentary maker for the commercial TV station TV3 and a radio personality for the station 98FM? (if he is currently both a television and radio personality)

• ... that Paul Connolly lives in Ireland currently as an investigative journalist and documentary maker for the commercial TV station TV3? (if his radio career is no longer necessary)

• Comment: At the time of this post, this article still needs work. I tried one specific documentary that Connolly still produces, but I could not leave out his occupations, and the hook about one documentary is too long. I'm still not sure whether he is either currently or no longer a radio personality.

Comment: My understanding is that he is no longer doing radio, having left that for television, but the sources that say this are message boards and blog posts, which we shouldn't be using. We hope (talk) 03:07, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Added another hook, just in case. --George Ho (talk) 03:33, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

• Hook suggestion: that Irish investigative journalist Paul Connolly began his career as an editor for The Bike Buyers Guide, where motorbikes are bought and sold? We hope (talk) 02:25, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Too short, article is only 1201 characters. -- Esemono (talk) 08:05, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

• I am failing this due to the combination of inadequate length and outstanding questions about the facts in the article. --Orlady (talk) 16:38, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
