- Comment: Hook has deliberately been written in a "cryptic crossword" style, per feedback from WP:DYK regulars.
5x expanded by Ktin (talk). Self-nominated at 02:52, 18 February 2021 (UTC).
- The article has been expanded more than fivefold and is nominated timely. It is long enough, well written and well sourced. I found no copyvios. I am assuming good faith on the source for the hooks because of a paywall, but I have no doubt the quote is correct. Both hooks are OK, but I prefer ALT1 because it is a little unclear what "watch Verdi" means. The only thing lacking is a QPQ. Ktin, please ping me when you have done this. -- MelanieN (talk) 19:46, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
