@Jeromi Mikhael: do you want to make this a double hook with your Kaharuddin Nasution hook currently in Prep 1? Yoninah (talk) 16:25, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah: Idk what's a double hook. If you mean putting the Nasution's hook and the North Sumatra gov in the same prep, then I'll do.Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 17:47, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Jeromi Mikhael: Yes, I mean having two nominated articles in the same hook. It would look like this:
ALT1: ~~... that during his term as the Governor of North Sumatra, Kaharuddin Nasution ordered all civil servants in the province to wear white uniforms?~~
Though it would be better not to have two bolded links in a row, but to space them out a bit.
If you like this idea, I'll review this article and then call for someone else to add it to the Kaharuddin Nasution hook in Prep 1. Yoninah (talk) 18:02, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah: Yes for the double hook.Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 00:13, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OK, here is a review for the article itself: New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. I have added one "citation needed" tag per Rule D2. Images are freely licensed. QPQ done. Please add the cite and then I'll approve this. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 10:31, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest splitting up the bolded links this way:
ALT1a: ... that during his term as the Governor of North Sumatra in the 1980s, Kaharuddin Nasution ordered all civil servants in the province to wear white uniforms? Yoninah (talk) 10:35, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah: I've fixed the problems you've mentioned. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 13:18, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. This article is good to go. Foreign language ALT1a hook ref AGF and cited inline in the Kaharuddin Nasution article. I'll get someone to substitute the hook in Prep 1. Yoninah (talk) 13:51, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
