Robert Burns (Stevenson)

Statue of Robert Burns
Statue of Robert Burns
  • ... that US General Arthur MacArthur gave an address at the unveiling of a monument (pictured) to Scottish poet Robert Burns, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin? Source: [1] Top of page 155, text reads "General Arthur MacArthur delivered an address on Scottish characteristics and poetry."

5x expanded by WIScotusjsmke (talk). Nominated by Freekee (talk) at 04:50, 29 November 2019 (UTC).

Symbol possible vote.svg "Milwaukee Wisconsin" in the hook should have a comma and at least one link, and the article needs a copyedit; I'll try to do this. Ham II (talk) 22:10, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
Added the comma after "Milwaukee"; however, there is no requirement that a well-known location be linked in a hook, where we try to minimize unnecessary links to avoid distracting from the nominated article. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:32, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
Symbol confirmed.svg I prefer ALT1 as it makes it very clear what the hook is about. Daniel Case (talk) 18:18, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
  • I think alt1 is hookier. Why would an American general give an address about a Scottish poet? How about
