I can't approve either hook yet; the original hook isn't cited or even directly mentioned (only implied by the medal table), and in addition the reference to a "nine year career" is strange since he took up the sport much longer than nine years ago and has been competing internationally since at least 2004 (when he won Paralympic medals). The ALT hook comes closer, but I'd prefer it saying "Marcel Hug" rather than "The Silver Bullet" and his victory in the Paris wheelchair marathon is as far as I can see not cited. (My ALT2 suggestion, below, will also need the Paris cite.)

Marcel Hug

  • ... that in his nine year career, wheelchair athlete Marcel Hug (pictured) has won 19 international medals, but never a Paralympic gold?
  • Comment: Alts are welcome, I am not too keen on the hook
  • ALT1: ... that The Silver Bullet (pictured) has won the Paris, Berlin, New York and London wheelchair marathons?

5x expanded by FruitMonkey (talk). Nominated by Matty.007 (talk) at 16:52, 13 April 2014 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg Length and time of 5x expansion check out. Found no copyvios. QPQ not strictly required. Enough refs in general, but not for the hook facts. Image looks OK to me (although I don't have much experience in reviewing hooks with images, so it wouldn't hurt if someone double-checked it). I can't approve either hook yet; the original hook isn't cited or even directly mentioned (only implied by the medal table), and in addition the reference to a "nine year career" is strange since he took up the sport much longer than nine years ago and has been competing internationally since at least 2004 (when he won Paralympic medals). The ALT hook comes closer, but I'd prefer it saying "Marcel Hug" rather than "The Silver Bullet" and his victory in the Paris wheelchair marathon is as far as I can see not cited. (My ALT2 suggestion, below, will also need the Paris cite.)
  • ALT2: ... that Marcel Hug (pictured) has won the Paris, Berlin, New York and London wheelchair marathons? Sideways713 (talk) 11:53, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
  • In cite 10, the second paragraph of the BBC article, it opens with: "Hug, 28, who won last weekend's Paris Marathon" FruitMonkey (talk) 12:38, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
  • Thanks. I replaced the previous reference 9 with that one so it's close enough to the hook fact; it's a better ref anyway.
Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Now we just need someone to approve ALT2 (or ALT1 if they like that better), and double-check the image if possible. Sideways713 (talk) 13:36, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
What do you think of mentioning both:
ALT3: ... that The Silver Bullet Marcel Hug (pictured) has won the Paris, Berlin, New York and London wheelchair marathons? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:11, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Just looking now - I think the nickname makes the hook more interesting, so ALT3 wins my vote - just checking sourcing etc. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 05:32, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Symbol confirmed.svg Material for hook ALT3 sourced from 3-4 refs - all good. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 05:38, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
