Cervix
[edit]- ... that the cervix has three layers: a mucosal layer, a layer made up of smooth muscle, and a serosal layer?

- Technically true, but I propose an alternate hook that may be more interesting: --LT910001 (talk) 01:47, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
- I'd also support the original hook, as it is a straightforward, regular DYK, which DYK needs in addition to strange facts about things. --LT910001 (talk) 01:47, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
- ALT1 is far more interesting than the original hook, IMO. Perhaps another hook that is both interesting and more accessible to a non-medical audience such as:
- ALT2: ... that the cervix has been described in anatomical literature since the time of Hippocrates? 97198 (talk) 13:02, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
- ALT1 is far more interesting than the original hook, IMO. Perhaps another hook that is both interesting and more accessible to a non-medical audience such as:
Article is new enough (recent GA), long enough, and well written. ATL1 is verified with inline reference. Agree with LT910001 that original hook is not very interesting, and ALT2 is questionable as the article says that early writers "used the term to refer to both the cervix and the internal uterine orifice". No copyvio detected. ALT1 good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 05:14, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
