    I've been working on a bunch of Pomona articles lately, thus the noms. None are time-sensitive, so I'm fine with this being scheduled for further out to create some space. April 7 would be a great date for this one, since Pomona has a 4/7 day celebration every year on that date. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 22:32, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

    Template:Re Thanks for the review! Do you have any thoughts about whether alt0/1/2 would be most interesting? Did you cross out alt1 because it was less interesting or is there some other problem with it? {{u|Sdkb}}talk 08:45, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping I was leaving the choice of hook to the promoter. I struck ALT1 because it implied that Pomona College alumni were in general promoting the number, whereas the article suggests that the Star Trek inclusion was an individual initiative by Joe Menosky.
