 * ... that Hurricane Bawbag was a nickname given to the European windstorm, Friedhelm. The term bawbag being a Scottish slang word for scrotum?


 * The hook makes me cringe a little on the inside but otherwise seems a very interesting hook. I recommend the hook:


 * ALT1: ... that the name Hurricane Bawbag, the colloquial name for European windstorm Friedhelm, comes from a Scots word for scrotum?

 * Article isn't stable yet; page move discussion and a lot of people calling bollocks. Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:20, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I started the page move discussion and I have to admit that consensus seems to support both the article's legitimacy and the present name. I'm almost certain that by the time this gets reviewed and posted this will have settled down and stability won't be an issue. Ks0stm  (T•C•G•E) 19:11, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Article covers a recent event and (as such) is naturally very actively edited. Consensus in the discussion is now strongly biased to accepting the article's validity, supporting the removal of the page move tag... inclusion as a DYK relatively soon would seem appropriate for this type of article Splateagle (talk) 18:19, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
 * More stable now, but it has an expand tag. Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:17, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg I think it's OK to go now. However, I would suggest going with an alternative wording for the hook as follows. Prioryman (talk) 14:28, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 * ALT2 ... that European windstorm Friedhelm was colloquially called Hurricane Bawbag, from a Scots word for a scrotum?
