Viernes Negro
edit- ... that in Venezuela "black Friday" refers to a Friday in 1983 that began the continuing nosedive of the nation's economy? Source: "El Viernes Negro en Venezuela, se refiere específicamente al día viernes, 18 de febrero de 1983, cuando el bolívar sufrió una fuerte devaluación frente al dólar estadounidense. El Viernes Negro representa un hito en Venezuela que cambió nuestra historia económica." (English: "Viernes Negro/Black Friday in Venezuela refers specifically to the Friday, 18 February 1983, when the bolívar (currency) suffered a strong devaluation against the US dollar. Viernes Negro represents the point in Venezuela that changed its economic history") (Notitarde)
- Reviewed: Webbed foot
- Comment: Even though it's a while away, this could go up on Black Friday in November, as a fun comparative.

- Interesting:
- Other problems:
- Do you have a more interesting hook? If not, I will go with the one you provided. I thought this was interesting, but I thought of two other alternate hooks...
- ALT1: ... that Venezuela's economy has still not recovered from Black Friday in 1983?
- ALT2: ... that the Venezuelan bolívar never recovered from Black Friday in 1983?
| QPQ: Done. |

- Both the ALT hooks are good; since they're just rephrasing the original, do you think this would still need another reviewer? Kingsif (talk) 02:20, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Kingsif: I don't think another reviewer is required, since it's such a minor issue. However, if you want to go with either of the ALT hooks or the original, it's your choice. epicgenius (talk) 02:32, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
