Ghoncheh Ghavami

  • ... that Ghoncheh Ghavami has gone on hunger strike to protest more than 100 days in detention for protesting for equal access for women at sporting events in Iran?

Created by Mrjohncummings (talk). Nominated by Plot Spoiler (talk) at 20:13, 11 October 2014 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg New enough and long enough. Article is free of tags, disputes and obvious bias. I found one 15 word direct match from the source quoted but I paraphrased that myself. I think the hook can be worded better, in particular I think it is bad wording to use the word 'protest' and 'protesting' in such close proximity to describe two different events. How about simplifying to:
ALT1: ... that Ghoncheh Ghavami has gone on hunger strike after spending over 100 days in detention for protesting for equal access for women at sporting events in Iran? or
ALT2: ... that Ghoncheh Ghavami has gone on hunger strike to protest being detained for over 100 days for demonstrating for equal access for women at sporting events in Iran? Freikorp (talk) 10:31, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Symbol possible vote.svg Nominator has not responded in the weeks since the review, and a second ping has just been made to Plot Spoiler's talk page. It would be a shame to close this, but we can't wait forever for an otherwise active editor to give this some priority. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:51, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Sorry for the delay. If you wouldn't mind giving me until Sunday but should have it ready before then. Thanks. Plot Spoiler (talk) 17:49, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Sunday is fine. Please let us know if it's going to take longer than that. Thanks! BlueMoonset (talk) 06:09, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Sorry, just need a few more days. Should be able to take care of it by Wednesday. Thanks for your understanding. Plot Spoiler (talk) 07:34, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Symbol delete vote.svg I really think this nomination should be closed. Aside from the fact I don't understand why this is taking so long and i'm sick of waiting, the nomination has been open so long now that all the hooks are redundant - Ghavami is no longer on hunger-strike. We now need completely new hooks, and I don't relish waiting for that to occur since it apparently takes well over a month before existing hooks can even be looked at.
