Meets newness criteria. GA - Long enough, and properly referenced. Seems to be the 5th DYK, so no QPQ required. Copyvio unlikely. Images used in the article seem to be okay and no image is used in the hook. The hook is slightly confusing as on first glance it appears that the party would build a condo for each MP. Try and use better words if you can, though I am technically okay with the current hook as well. Jupitus Smart 05:09, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
Thanks Jupitus Smart, how about this:
- ALT1:
... that if elected to government, Independence from Europe would build a condo in London to house every British Member of Parliament?
- ALT1:
- To be really truthful, ALT1 doesn't help much either though its certainly better than ALT0. However I may be underestimating the viewers, so I don't mind this being promoted. Jupitus Smart 13:49, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
Hmm, I don't want there to be any doubt; that said, I do appreciate your honesty Jupitus Smart.
- ALT2:... that if elected to government, Independence from Europe would build a large condo in London to house British Members of Parliament?
- This is much better than the previous hooks as it mentions that only a single condo will be made, removing the chances for any doubt. I also appreciate your tenacity in improving the hook. Best. Jupitus Smart 15:38, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
