... that the record for the number of times a person has been licked on the buttocks by a dog in two minutes (example of buttocks pictured) is 145 licks?

Comment: I'm well aware that, when it comes to this nomination, I'm being more than a little bit cheeky (no pun intended). I guess that I'm making this nomination in the spirit of ignoring all of the rules. And probably also all decency... I welcome other people's thoughts on the matter.

Length and date are fine. The image is not used in the article and is therefore ineligible for DYK. I think the hook should mention the name of the article, perhaps:
ALT1 ... that game show, the People's Book of Records, included a record for the number of times a person has been licked on the buttocks by a dog in two minutes? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 09:56, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

It's not essential for the title of the article to explicitly appear within the hook though, is it? Personally, I prefer my phrasing, although if people think it's a bit debase and would prefer the alt, I'm happy with that too. Thanks for the review.
