The Bird Language
- ... that the "Bird Language" antagonises corrupt officials?
Created by Kingoflettuce (talk). Self-nominated at 12:55, 5 December 2018 (UTC).
- 16px Article is new enough and long enough. AGF'ing on the sources as I can't access and/or read them. No evidence of copyvio or plagiarism. Sorta interesting hook, but it might be too quirky given WP:DYKHOOK "If the subject is a work of fiction or a fictional character, the hook must involve the real world in some way." QPQ is OK.

- Template:Ping Thanks! Having had a number of similar hooks passed, I would say it should meet the "in some way criterion" -- after all, it is social commentary that "antagonises corrupt officials" (so this does not simply refer to plot). Kingoflettuce (talk) 02:21, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
