The hook needs clarity. I had to visit the article to find out that this was about Rugby. Would you care to suggest an alternative hook that works for those who have no idea of the subject? I expect a DYK to give me a full piece of information that makes me want to travel the links. This one made me decide to in order to see why it was nominated, not because it drew me to the article(s) Fiddle Faddle (talk) 08:01, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
Alt1 ... that Michael Le Bourgeois was the first Jerseyman to sign a professional rugby contract with Jersey? The C of E. God Save The Queen! (talk) 08:08, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
  • Infinitely to be preferred. The hook now has the clarity that says to me "This is a topic that could interest me, I will look". Fiddle Faddle (talk) 08:22, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
So are you OK to tick it off then? The C of E. God Save The Queen! (talk) 08:26, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
As far as I can tell this DYK passes all the criteria set for it. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 09:00, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
