• It's not a bad hook, but wouldn't the following be punchier?

That might be better, also because the kidnapping article isn't that great. SL93 (talk) 23:18, 7 May 2017 (UTC)

ALT needs to be looked at. SL93 (talk) 21:37, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

New enough=nom on creation date; long enough=3297 char; neutral with in-line sources, no apparent copyvios; hook at 76 char is under maximum. Love the hook and it is verified by the source cited. QPQ done. No image. GTG. SusunW (talk) 13:56, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
