Lutz Bachmann

 * ... that, before resignation as its leader, a photo of Lutz Bachmann, founder of Pegida, an anti-Islam organisation, posing as Adolf Hitler sparked controversy?

 * The hook has too many clauses (commas). How about:
 * ALT1: ... that before resigning as head of Pegida, an anti-Islam organisation, Lutz Bachmann posed as Adolf Hitler? Yoninah (talk) 22:18, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Commas do not indicate just clauses; there are also phrases, including absolute phrase and prepositional phrase. George Ho (talk) 23:47, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I'm not an expert in grammar, but I do know which hooks flow better. Yoninah (talk) 11:29, 16 February 2015 (UTC)


 * ALT-0b: ... that a photo of Lutz Bachmann—founder of an anti-Islam organisation, Pegida—posing as Adolf Hitler sparked controversy before his resignation as its leader?


 * I hope this helps. George Ho (talk) 19:05, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Again, I can't explain grammar, but this reads rather choppily. Do you mean:
 * ALT2: ... that a photo of Lutz Bachmann posing as Adolf Hitler sparked controversy before his resignation as leader of Pegida, an anti-Islam organisation? Yoninah (talk) 20:44, 16 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed. ALT2 remains; struck earlier hooks due to issues raised (agree on choppiness). BlueMoonset (talk) 15:51, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg This article is new enough and long enough. One of the sources cited to support the ALT2 hook fails but the others are satisfactory. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright/close paraphrasing issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:33, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
