Renovation of the nuclear weapon arsenal of the USA

edit
  • ... that the United States is going to spend about $1 trillion for the renovation of the nuclear weapon arsenal?
  • ALT1:... that the renovation of the nuclear weapon arsenal of the USA resulted in the setting of Doomsday Clock two minutes closer to midnight?

In general, looks good. Long enough, new enough at time of nomination, seems well-sourced and neutral, QPQ not necessary. The hooks are both interesting and short enough, but neither of them corresponds closely to the facts cited. The first option is based on an estimated figure from analysts that ranges from $900bn to $1.1tn. I suggest the word "approximately" would improve the accuracy here. Unless I'm reading it wrong, ALT1 is factually incorrect – the clock moved from five minutes to midnight to three minutes to midnight, which is a change of two minutes.

In which case, all looks good. I personally prefer ALT1 as a hook. Relentlessly (talk) 14:49, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
