Created by RAJIVVASUDEV (talk). Self-nominated at 12:23, 17 August 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Stripping (textiles); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
. I find the current hook less than hooky; but the information about the use of biochemicals such as fungi absolutely riveting. Could you expand that or make a hook out of it? Viriditas (talk) 10:46, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Viriditas: An alternative hook provided. Thanks RV (talk) 01:14, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- Review
This is an interesting subject that I admittedly know nothing about. The only things that pop out at me are 1) the use of a source from 1947 to describe the current state of the art regarding stripping agents. One would think the use of these chemicals might have changed in the last 76 years? And 2) the article is full of details but doesn't seem to quantify when it comes to a) the environmental footprint, including the environmental and health considerations, and b) production expenses. As the reader, I would appreciate more details on those specific things. Otherwise, the article is ready for DYK and I like the ALT hook. No copyvio detected, article and hook length look good, QPQ verified, neutral and policy compliant. Good work. Viriditas (talk) 01:35, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
