Haggis pakora at a restaurant

... that haggis pakora (pictured) combines traditional Scottish haggis ingredients with ingredients and preparation methods of Indian pakoras?

NEW REVIEWER Not sure about this hook -- is it hookey enough? The very name seems to make the hook so obvious that it's maybe not as interesting as it needs to be? Also, the language is neutral, but the mention of the company that produces the item commercially -- is that necessary, or is it promotional? Finally, I can't get the checklist template to show that this is plagiarism-free, but it is, per earwig's tool. Not sure what I'm doing wrong with the template. valereee (talk) 14:49, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

I have taken out mention of the company name. It was not meant to be promotional, but is not necessary either. An alternative hook is suggested below. I think the template is filled out o.k. - it shows plagiarism-free to me, on line 3. Aymatth2 (talk) 16:33, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

Weird...on my screen, it shows everything else checked off, but the plagiarism line marked as still a question mark and that section not collapsed. I've even reloaded the page. valereee (talk) 17:43, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

ALT1 ... that haggis pakora (pictured) has been called an "example of Indo-Gael fusion"?

I like that one better! valereee (talk) 17:15, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

@Valereee: ~~Perhaps consider using a different reviewing format. People will likely just skim past this entry, preventing its promotion, due to the inaccurate question marks, etc.~~ Regarding the initial hook vs. ALT1, I'm fine with using either. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 06:29, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

Struck part of above; review layout changed. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 21:02, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Article is new enough, long enough, seems well-sourced, neutrally-written, free of copyright vios, the alt hook is interesting and supported by a reliable citation, the image is free-use. Nominator has a gajillion QPQ. Looks good to go. Would appreciate if another reviewer would check my work, as this is my first DYK review. valereee (talk) 11:18, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
