Hook eligibility:
- Cited:
- WP:DYKHFC states that hook facts must be cited by the end of the sentence in which they appear. If the original hook is to be used then the first sentence in the Aftermath section needs a citation.
- Alt1 fails in its current form as the article does not seem to state this is the BUP's only representative, just that they are the first. Possibly this can be reworded?
- Interesting:
| QPQ: None required. |
@Stevie fae Scotland: Currently both hooks have slight issues. If you are able to fix one or both of these and ping me I would be happy to perform a second review. CSJJ104 (talk) 00:28, 27 July 2024 (UTC)- @CSJJ104: Thanks for the review. I have tweaked both points per your recommendations so they should be suitable now. Anything else though, just let me know.

- @Stevie fae Scotland: The issue with Alt1 is that the sources do not state that the BUP still only have one elected representative. I would be happy if the article and hook both stated they won their first elected representative here. CSJJ104 (talk) 15:29, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- @CSJJ104: No worries. I don't mind which way we do it so if that is the best option, I'm happy to go with that. Updated article to reflect that. Stevie fae Scotland (talk) 15:42, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

Updated Alt1 to replace the word "only" with the word "first" as discussed above. No further issues found and I am approving this nomination. CSJJ104 (talk) 20:49, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
