Overall: @Juxlos: Good article. But, while the article says that aliyah was born in Tangerang regency, the hook says that she was born in Tangerang city, which are two different things Onegreatjoke (talk) 17:39, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I do apologize for commenting on this nomination as it's already been approved, but I'm not sure if the hook is the best option here. For one thing, it's relatively common for a politician who was born in place to represent another (for example, Boris Johnson, former PM of the UK, who was born in New York), so I'm not really sure how their case is any unusual. I'm also not sure if a double hook is the best option here either for the same reason; it might be better to have separate hooks for them.

I mean, if another politician named Borys Johnson, born in the UK, is the Mayor of New York, that would be an interesting coincidence that warrants a hook. Juxlos (talk) 09:09, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That particular case, yes. However, I don't think a person being born in one place then representing another by itself is an interesting thing since it's quite common. The circumstances leading to said situation would make it interesting though. For example, former Philippine President Joseph Estrada has served as mayor of two separate places: San Juan, where he lived for quite a long time, and Manila which is his birth city. Him being mayor of San Juan despite being born in Manila is not by itself that interesting, but him being mayor of San Juan, then later returning to his birth city and becoming mayor of that city is (I'm sure there are also other similar cases in other countries).

I'm truly baffled by User:Narutolovehinata5's intervention. The two facts together make a very clearly interesting and surprising hook, which would not be the case if we separated them. "I don't think a person being born in one place then representing another by itself is an interesting thing since it's quite common." Nobody disputes this, but that's not the claim expressed by the hook. MartinPoulter (talk) 14:42, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a second/third opinion on the hook as to its interestingness. I'd be inclined to let it go through, but I wanted to get another take on it. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:16, 31 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sammi Brie, the opening sentence of the lede notes that "People's Representative Council" is the literal translation of the name in Indonesian. However, if you want "House of Representatives", here's a minor modification of the original hook to use that phrase—it comes in at 196 prose characters:
