Eduardo Arnold

(

• Back to T:TDYK
• Article history

)

• ... that Eduardo Arnold was vice-governor of the Santa Cruz Province in Argentina under Néstor Kirchner for two terms?

• Reviewed: Maureen Chiquet

Created by Cambalachero (talk). Self nominated at 20:56, 25 December 2013 (UTC).

• Length and date ok. But the hook needs a ref directly after the sentence in the article. --Soman (talk) 20:57, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

•  Done Cambalachero (talk) 23:35, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

• The QPQ listed is not a valid full review, and needs expansion to show what checks were carried out. Harrias ^talk 07:14, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

•  Done (it was already done, but now it's more explicit) Cambalachero (talk) 17:17, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

• New review needed to recheck hook sourcing, and also to check what was omitted from first review, such as sourcing in general, neutrality, close paraphrasing, etc. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:54, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

  Length, date, and general compliance with policy are good. Suggested fact has been verified by provided inline citation. It's not all that interesting, but a more interesting fact such as:

ALT1 ... that Eduardo Arnold, a political ally of deceased Argentinian President Néstor Kirchner, speculated that Kirchner's mausoleum may contain a secret vault?

could have BLP issues, so I won't push it. If a third party wants to take a look at the ALT, go right ahead, but if not the original should be OK. --ThaddeusB (talk) 07:07, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

• If ALT1 is to be used, it needs to be reviewed and approved by someone other than its author. Please strike out any hook not approved for promotion.— Maile (talk) 12:54, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

  Not sure where the confusion comes from, but, again, the original is approved but boring. If someone wants to take a look at the alt, go ahead. ("If a third party wants to take a look at the ALT ... if not the original should be OK") --ThaddeusB (talk) 04:07, 28 January 2014 (UTC)

• I've just struck ALT1—I think it does have BLP issues. The original hook is indeed boring, which is what keeps me from restoring the tick (I've instead struck it as well): we need an interesting hook, and a vicegovernor doesn't strike me as all that interesting. The article mentions a vicepresidency, but I'm not quite clear whether this is of a provincial legislature, or the national one. If the national one, a hook could be based on Kirchner removing Arnold as the VP of the chamber after the latter opposed a tax hike. Or there may be other possibilities.

ALT2 ... that Eduardo Arnold wrote an unpublished book about the early life of Argentine president Néstor Kirchner?

ALT3 ... that Eduardo Arnold wrote an unpublished book about the early life of Néstor Kirchner?

Both ones are basically the same. The difference is for whenever the name of Néstor Kirchner, written alone, is identified by non-Argentine readers, or requires explanation Cambalachero (talk) 02:46, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

• Article checks out OK now, and ALT2 is good. I think it's valuable for the hook to indicate who Kirchner was, so I prefer ALT2 over ALT3. --Orlady (talk) 17:58, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
