dyk hook
Hey,, for dyk, the information in the hook must be cited at the sentence. This sentence didn't have a source on it, so I added the southeast citation to it. --valereee (talk) 10:33, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
 * A belated reply to User:Valereee, but the way I read it, "appearing no later than the end of the sentence(s) offering that fact" suggests that if the hook fact is spread over two consecutive sentences in the article, it should be fine to have the one citation at the end of the second sentence. If separate citations are indeed required for all sentences, the rule should probably say "the end(s of each) of the sentence(s)." WT:Did you know would be a better place to discuss this. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:54, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * that's how I interpret eligibility criteria 3b at Did you know: Each fact in the hook must be supported in the article by at least one inline citation to a reliable source, appearing no later than the end of the sentence(s) offering that fact. Citations at the end of the paragraph are not sufficient. This rule applies even when a citation would not be required for the purposes of the article. Both sentences required a citation because one sentence supported western missionaries and the other supported the rest of the hook. The other sentence says only western influence. If the hook had said simply western influence, it would have been sufficient for DYK to have only that sentence contain an inline citation, but the hook said missionaries, so I added the source to the other sentence, too, rather than opening a question at talk for something that seemed obvious to me. But we can open a question at DYK talk if you're interpreting the rule differently! --valereee (talk) 14:15, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
