ALT ... that a bridge (aerial view pictured) between India and Sri Lanka is said to be built by two monkeys, Nala and Nila?

• 16px Red, these are two fine looking articles. Let's do them justice by actually indicating we have two different articles by avoiding a sea of blue. Got ALT? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:34, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Crisco 1492, suggested ALT. I thought naming them will take away the power of the power of "two monkeys".Redtigerxyz ^Talk 14:26, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

• If there was only one link I'd agree with you, but... — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:29, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Crisco 1492, since the original epic says that the bridge is built by only Nala; what do you think if I split this?

ALT2 ... that a bridge (aerial view pictured) between India and Sri Lanka is said to be built by a monkey?

and another hook for Nila...

• (ec) A small text issue from the Nila article: The Ramayana specifics that Nala was part of the search party who headed in the southern direction. - Nala or Nila? (also, I'm sure this is specifies) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:36, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Oops. Corrected.Redtigerxyz ^Talk 14:41, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

If you want to have two articles, fine, but honestly Nala has all of the "hookiest" elements IMHO. I'd keep them together. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:37, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Crisco 1492, Nila urinates to disturb a sacrifice; hooky?Redtigerxyz ^Talk 14:41, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

• Fair enough. So long as we don't change the Nala hook to one about ejaculating while hugging. 18px — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:49, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Splitting DYK nom (Template:Did you know nominations/Nila (Ramayana)). Retaining ALT2. Thanks Crisco 1492 for the suggestions.Redtigerxyz ^Talk 15:12, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
