Austrian Minister of Finance Eduard Müller

• ... that in 2001 Eduard Müller (pictured) was tasked with reforming the Ministry of Finance which he now heads? Source: [1]: "Er war von 2001 bis 2005 als Projektleiter für die Reform der Finanzverwaltung" ("He was from 2001 to 2005 the project leader for the reform of the Ministry of Finance") He's now obviously Minister of Finance.

• Comment: This was translated from the German Wikipedia. I'm fine if we don't use the image, I just rarely write articles that have reasonable images and didn't want to miss my chance to use that parameter.

• I wonder if either the hook could be reworded or if a new hook should be proposed, as right now ALT0 isn't really eyecatching or spectacular. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 04:02, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

• ALT1: ... that Austrian Finance Minister Eduard Müller (pictured) isn't the only politician in his family? Source: [2] "Eduard Müller ist der Bruder des amtierenden Bürgermeisters von Weiden bei Rechnitz Wilhelm Müller." ("Eduard Mueller is the brother of the acting mayor of Weiden by Rechnitz, Wilhelm Mueller"0

What about this one? I think it's a bit better. Wugapodes [t^hɑk] [ˈkan.ˌʧɹɪbz] 06:06, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

It could work, but it needs additional context. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 06:21, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

• @Wugapodes: This article is new enough and long enough. The image is suitably licensed, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright or plagiarism issues. I am not impressed with ALT1 considering that the only other politician in his family seems to be mayor of Weiden bei Rechnitz, a town with 969 residents at the last census. I suggest ALT2. A QPQ still needs to be done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:24, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
• ALT2 ... that the new Austrian Finance Minister, Eduard Müller (pictured), started his career as a tax inspector?

ALT2 sounds good, but it might need to be rephrased slightly. Like instead of "started his career as a tax inspector", something like "first job was a tax inspector" or wording to that effect. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 04:16, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

I'm doing my QPQ now. ALT2 looks good, and Narutolovehinata5's suggestion works well too. Wug·a·po·des​ 02:38, 10 August 2019 (UTC)

• New reviewer needed to check ALT2; QPQ has been submitted. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:36, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

• ALT3 ... that the first job of new Austrian Finance Minister, Eduard Müller (pictured), was a tax inspector?

ALT3 is ready to go. I don't speak German but Steuerprüfer is easy to find in the source. Let's use Narutolovehinata5's wording. Nice article. -SusanLesch (talk) 15:24, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
