- 16px Hi, I keep coming by to promote this, but I just don't find the hooks interesting. The first hook would benefit from using language other than building imagery—"building", "construction", "house". ALT1 is a nice award but not terribly interesting to a broad audience. It's a nice image. Could you propose something a little more hooky to accompany it? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 10:51, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
- How about ALT2:... that the Builders Building (pictured) has been associated with construction industries, the Chicago Board of Education, and a hotel?
- I somewhat disagree that the content of ALT0 is boring (relative to the other hooks that appear on the Main Page) but am open to rewording it. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 19:08, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
