Ronald Grossarth-Maticek
- ... that work of medical scholars Ronald Grossarth-Maticek and Hans Eysenck has stirred considerable controversy in 2019? Source: multiple in the article, for example https://www.bmj.com/content/367/bmj.l5899 or https://www.theguardian.com/science/2019/oct/11/work-of-renowned-uk-psychologist-hans-eysenck-ruled-unsafe

- Comment: Keeping WP:BLP in mind, the controversy he is involved in is quite interesting. Feel free to propose a more neutral hook. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:45, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

- New enough, long enough. The lede needs to be developed. If there is a controversy, what is it? The prose here is rather bland. Please propose some new hooks. --evrik (talk) 21:10, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
- (@Evrik: I've added a sentence about controversy to the lead. I am not sure how to develop it further either there or here due to BLP/UNDUE issues. I think the hook is good. If you think it is bland, please suggest more 'interesting' ones, bearing in mind BLP and length limits here. I tried and I failed to come up with anything better. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here
- (@Piotrus: What is the controversy? Can you explain it? --evrik (talk) 16:22, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- (@Evrik: Of course but the explanation (already present in the body of the article) would take the hook over the DYK length size. And there is also the issue that the subject is filing a legal action for defamation or such, so if our hook is a bit too biased they could complain about us too. Short and simple seems the right way here. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:46, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
- I read the entire article as part of my review. Humor me and write a hook that goes over the length limit. --evrik (talk) 15:52, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
- Evrik, in all honesty, I don't want to get sued by a suit-friendly BLP. Do you? But just for the sake of argument, here you go, ALT1 below: --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:59, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
- ALT1 ... that work of medical scholars Ronald Grossarth-Maticek and Hans Eysenck has been declared "unsafe" by an enquiry on behalf of King's College London? (Refs: [1] and several others in the body of article)
- ALT2 ... medical scholar Ronald Grossarth-Maticek directed a long-term study involving 30,000 people from 18,000 households examined at regular intervals over a period of more than 20 years? --evrik (talk) 17:44, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
- What about Alt 2? --evrik (talk) 17:44, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
- Err, you think this is interesting? We clearly have a very different view on what makes a hook boring or interesting. In either case, this will need a third party to review your hook. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:50, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
- Well, it's best so far, and there is no fear of lawsuits. ;-) --evrik (talk) 20:27, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
