Proposed Alt hook to incorporate the Tadeusz Wrona DYK:

Or Alt 2:
"... that Tadeusz Wrona, who safely landed LOT Flight 16 from New York to Warsaw after the landing gear failed to deploy, was proclaimed a hero and awarded one of Poland's most prestigious awards?"

  • I closed the merger discussion as "no merge", so the article is no longer festooned with that problematic template. Time for a review! --Orlady (talk) 03:21, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
  • I've reviewed the articles for dates, length, and hook fact sources. I "struck out" some items in the hooks that are not supported by the articles and sources. Otherwise the hooks are good. I've not checked for plagiarism issues yet. --Orlady (talk) 06:08, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Checks carried out on the English language sources: I resolved some minor close paraphrasing from one source. I'd recommend a slightly shorter version of ALT2: Harrias talk 17:50, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
  • modified ALT2: ... that Tadeusz Wrona, who safely landed LOT Flight 16 from New York to Warsaw after the landing gear failed to deploy, was awarded one of Poland's most prestigious awards?

A significant portion of the "Aircraft" section (which is unsourced in the article) appears to have been copied from this source. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:08, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

That information was added after the review. I've currently removed it: it is already covered lightly in the article, and as far as I'm concerned, the addition goes into too much technical detail. Given that, I'm happy to approve the article once more in it's original form, but it needs monitoring in case the information is re-added. Harrias talk 00:47, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
