• @Starship.paint: someone added this note on the talk page of this template:
• The fact they were peaceful should be included. -- Valjean (talk) 16:50, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Okay Valjean, if the Big Three [1] [2] [3] news agencies say they're peaceful, they were. starship.paint (talk) 01:39, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

ALT3:... that U.S. law enforcement used chemical irritants, including pepper balls, to disperse peaceful protesters shortly before President Donald Trump's photo op at St. John's Church? (pictured) Source for peaceful protesters cleared with chemical agents: Reuters, Associated Press, Agence France Presse. Source for everything else: factcheck.org

• Feoffer - ALT3 for your consideration ^ starship.paint (talk) 01:39, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

• @Feoffer: thank you. BTW since you already reviewed the nomination, you just have to review a couple of the criteria for a new hook. Yoninah (talk) 13:49, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

• @Starship.paint: Something sounds POV to me about calling them "peaceful protestors" instead of "a peaceful protest". I suggest this alt:
• ALT3a: ... that U.S. law enforcement used chemical irritants, including pepper balls, to disperse a peaceful protest shortly before President Donald Trump's photo op at St. John's Church (pictured)?
• However, this doesn't really indicate what the peaceful protest was for. Yoninah (talk) 13:54, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

• @Yoninah: ALT4 - that U.S. law enforcement used chemical irritants to disperse peaceful George Floyd protests in Washington, D.C., shortly before President Donald Trump's photo op at St. John's Church? (pictured)? starship.paint (talk) 01:10, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

• @Starship.paint: thank you. But shouldn't it read: to disperse a peaceful George Floyd protest in Washington, D.C.? There's also a tag in the 8th paragraph under Background. Yoninah (talk) 12:29, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

• @Yoninah: - for the tag, unfortunately the source doesn't say by whom, so I can't answer that, but I've tried to reword the sentence to clarify that it was part of the federal response. See below for the hook, thanks for catching that. starship.paint (talk) 13:45, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

ALT4a ... that U.S. law enforcement used chemical irritants to disperse a peaceful George Floyd protest in Washington, D.C., shortly before President Donald Trump's photo op at St. John's Church (pictured)? starship.paint (talk) 13:45, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

• OK, thanks. Restoring tick for ALT4a per Feoffer's review. Yoninah (talk) 13:52, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
