Khetcho

 * ... that prior to the start of World War I, Khetcho (pictured), a member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation, was tasked to acquire armaments to support Armenian self-defense efforts?
 * ALT1: ... that the Armenian combatant Khetcho (pictured) severely fractured his chin during a battle?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thank you for creating this article. Length, date, ALT1 hook verified. Well-referenced; all non-lede paragraphs have refs; all refs appear to be RS. No apparent close-paraphrasing issues. Image is from Commons. QPQ done. ALT1 GTG. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:30, 7 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Symbol possible vote.svg The ALT1 hook, which was promoted, just doesn't reflect the facts. The phrase "severely fractured his chin during a battle" indicates to me that Khetcho did it to himself somehow, and with perhaps several breaks. What the source says is "was severely wounded by a bullet which shattered his chin", which means that it was enemy fire that did it, and the bone was shattered (into many fragments) while the wound itself (involving holes in flesh) was severe. Please come up with a new, accurate hook. (I can't see enough of the source to determine whether "an encounter with Rahim Khan" would actually be appropriately described as a "battle".) Thanks.

Alright I'll add the original hook since its well-referenced and may be more in tune with the source. , please let me know what you think. Étienne Dolet (talk) 23:02, 16 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Instead of the original hook, which I didn't care for, could you rephrase the chin hook? Thanks. --Rosiestep (talk) 04:16, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * ALT2: ... that while in battle, Khetcho (pictured) chin was severely fractured due to a bullet wound?

Please see ALT2. Étienne Dolet (talk) 17:57, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * ALT3: ... that Armenian activist Khetcho (pictured) jawbone was shattered by a bullet before he fought in the First World War?
 * Weird to have a chin fractured. Surely it was his jawbone? Victuallers (talk) 20:01, 17 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Victuallers, as I pointed out above, the source says his chin was shattered by a bullet. Not fractured. In my view, the new ALTs have the same basic problem that ALT1 had. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:15, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * BlueMoonset Goody, shattered is much more hooky, do feel free to edit these hooks. I have made your suggested change. Victuallers (talk) 20:21, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * ALT4: ... that the jawbone of Armenian activist Khetcho (pictured) was shattered by a bullet during a battle? Étienne Dolet (talk) 22:07, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg ALT4 GTG. Not only do I like "shattered", but I like the proximity of "bullet" to "battle". --Rosiestep (talk) 03:03, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
