Swedish Levant Company
- ... that the creation of the Swedish Levant Company was controversial? Source: "In many ways, establishing the Levant company was a controversial issue, a fact reflected in the riksdag of 1738."
- ALT1: ... that the creation of the Swedish Levant Company in 1738 was controversial? Source: "In many ways, establishing the Levant company was a controversial issue, a fact reflected in the riksdag of 1738."
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Sulayman ibn Sa'd al-Khushani
- Comment: This is my first time with WP:DYK. I created the article and submitted it to WP:AFC.
Moved to mainspace by Bkissin (talk). Nominated by MJL (talk) at 02:04, 24 May 2019 (UTC).
I'll do a full review soon, but right now I have concerns about both hooks: they're not exactly eye-catching or hooky. Like, instead of saying that the creation of the company was controversial, it might be a good idea to include the context for that in the hook. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:45, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
- I also have to note that, while you have done a QPQ, as you have less than five DYK nominations, you are not required to do a QPQ (you can still do one of course if you want, it's just optional right now). Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:49, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
ALT2: ... that the creation of the Swedish Levant Company in 1738 was controversial because of a disagreement between the merchants and the Hat Party?--valereee (talk) 13:10, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
- Template:Re Oh my gosh I love that one!!! Only correction would be to change Template:Tq to Template:Tq because according to the source the merchant elite supported the English model. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 16:08, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
- ALT2a: ... that the creation of the Swedish Levant Company in 1738 was controversial because of a disagreement between several Swedish merchants and the Hat Party? --valereee (talk) 16:38, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
- ALT2a is really good. I have however seen some typos in the article, for example "At major issue was" instead of "a major issue was". Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:11, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
- Template:U, I've done a quick copyedit --valereee (talk) 17:47, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
Full review needed; prior reviewer has not returned after four weeks. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:27, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- Lua error: expandTemplate: template "y" does not exist.
