Ioan Pușcariu

 * Symbol question.svg This article looks pretty good, with the original hook (ALT0) being the most interesting while being neutral, followed by ALT1 and ALT3 respectively. All seem to be sourced (AGF per language). I would say however that the hooks should be edited somehow to add slightly more context. In all three I think it'd be useful to describe him as ethnic Romanian. For ALT0 I think it should note that the 1848 revolution failed, "...during the failed 1848 revolution...". I would also change it to say "...Ioan Pușcariu returned to work in...". Regarding ALT1 the article makes it seem not like the name was changed, but that it was written down incorrectly by mistake, so some rewording is a possibility there. As for the article, it states that he joined the "Transylvanian Revolution of 1848", as opposed to the "Hungarian Revolution of 1848" mentioned in hooks here, and if they're the same the article name should be changed to match.

 * - Thank you for the review. I hope I've addressed your concerns. Regarding the 1848 revolution, the one in Transylvania (for which we still don't have an article) was a subset of the wider Hungarian revolution, so both links are acceptable in this case. - Biruitorul Talk 15:43, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
 * - Thanks for the interesting history article. For me it's now a coin flip between ALT0 and ALT1, which interest me in different ways, but both appear (AGF language) to be sourced. I guessed that the Transylvania revolution was a subset of the Hungarian one, but that is because I know where Transylvania is and where Hungary is (and was) and a broad overview of the history of the area. Many readers may not have this background awareness. It is thus incongruous to link to two different things in the article and the hook, and given the Hungary article exists, I would prefer it if the article mentioned that one so that readers can find it. Perhaps you can edit the article so that it notes the Transylvanian revolution was part of the wider Hungarian one. CMD (talk) 16:23, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
