- I did a bit of expansion and think the article meets length now. White Arabian Filly Neigh 20:11, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
- Checking on the expansion and it's just barely past the limit but it is past is so that part is good. I double checked the bot work, since it's still a work in progress I figured I'd follow up on it and they all check out. But the hook basically said "Setting Sun was once on television", can you not find something more interesting that such a generic statement? White Arabian Filly could you perhaps provide something more interesting for a hook? MPJ-DK 02:46, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
- ALT1 ...that it took Setting Sun three attempts to win a World Grand Championship?
- That's the best alt I can come up with. Actually, I had proposed the original because it's unusual to see horses on TV locally, never mind nationally. (They didn't even do much reporting on American Pharoah last year.) But, hopefully this alt is more interesting. White Arabian Filly Neigh 19:01, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
- White Arabian Filly that is good with me. Approved (side note I fixed your "Setting Sun" link in Alt1). MPJ-DK 20:00, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for that; it was coming a thunderstorm and I got in too much of a hurry... White Arabian Filly Neigh 00:30, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
