... that Hungary and Poland were united twice, though never for long?

Interesting article, long enough, but the hook does not convince me. I have no suggestions either, so... anyway, it checks out. --Lester Foster (talk | talk) 04:04, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

I see what you mean. How about: Surtsicna (talk) 10:54, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

ALT1: ... that Hungarians were so unpopular in Poland during the union of Hungary and Poland that c. 160 of them were massacred in Kraków?
ALT2: ... that the union of Hungary and Poland fell apart due to the regent Elizabeth of Bosnia's reluctance to give up her grip on power by moving from Buda to Kraków, where she had no supporters?

I would like to support the alternative hooks, but they're not directly sourced. Therefore, they cannot be used. Please address this.—♦♦ AMBER^(ЯʘCK) 21:42, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

I am afraid I do not understand what you mean. The alternative hooks are directly sourced. The citations appear right next the material. I've duplicated one citation but I do not see anything else that I can address. Surtsicna (talk) 22:24, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

In the case of the first alternative hook, that's still not happening. But since ALT2 is the more interesting one and is appropriately cited now, I'll approve that one.—♦♦ AMBER^(ЯʘCK) 08:48, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Is this what you had in mind regarding ALT1? Surtsicna (talk) 11:21, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

It was. It may seem like nitpicking on my part, but these are the DYK rules. I will alter my vote: now it's for both ALT1 and ALT2.—♦♦ AMBER^(ЯʘCK) 11:41, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
