  • I find the hooks wordy rather than hooky. The first hook could easily be shortened:
  • ALT2: ... that the Shumen Plateau Nature Park (pictured) is located in the highest of the plateaus of the Danube Plain?
  • Shortening the second hook would have to explain "first – where?":
  • ALT3: ... that the Shumen Plateau Nature Park (pictured) has the first thematic educational trail? Yoninah (talk) 21:21, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
  • YoninahALT3 is fine. Added "Bulgaria" in the lead and ALT2 hook modified as ALT2a ... that the Shumen Plateau Nature Park (pictured) in Bulgaria is located on the highest plateau of the Danubian Plain?Nvvchar. 01:23, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Yoninah Have I understood your comment on ALT2 correctly and done the needful? Other wise pl tell me what more is to be done. Thanks.Nvvchar. 06:45, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Sorry, I wasn't able to get back to this yesterday. Yes, ALT2a works well; hook ref verified and cited inline. I did some editing per the sources and removed some close paraphrasing. It looks good now. ALT2a good to go. Yoninah (talk) 09:37, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Note: There is about 978 characters of text copied from Shumen fortress, which was posted by the same page creator in April 2016. However, the present article is well over 7700 characters, which satisfies the 5x expansion requirement of Rule A5. Yoninah (talk) 09:47, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
  • YoninahThanks for explaining the procedure to follow when copied from other sources. Also thanks for the edits and approvalNvvchar. 10:10, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
