- ALT1:... that a Dutch letter tastes delicious and sweet?
- ALT2:... that Dutch letter is a pastry first introduced by Dutch immigrants in the United States?
- I prefer the original hook. Sorry, but I don't view ALT1 as particularly interesting as a hook whatsoever, and ALT2 is also a bit bland. Also, the topic has nothing to do with April Fools' Day, so no need to wait until then. North America1000 19:15, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
Its neutral and well referenced (possibly excessively referenced!). Could you take a picture? I detected no copy vios or close paraphrasing. Hook is correctly formatted. The lead really is too long and contains material and references that really should be in the body but it can still be ticked. All the hooks seem OK to me. I am not sure why April fools would be appropriate. If there is some double meaning or innuendo here, someone will have to enlighten me. Philafrenzy
