Šime Budinić
... that, based on Cyrillic and Glagolitic, in his 1582 work Šime Budinić added Czech diacritics to Latin script with intention to use literary language understandible for most South Slavs?

- ALT1:... that Šime Budinić created complex literary language based on Cyrillic and Glagolitic by addition of the Czech diacritics to Latin script in order to penetrate as much South Slavs as possible?
Template:U, What do you think about ALT1?--Antidiskriminator (talk) 07:15, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
- Well, "penetrate as much South Slavs as possible" makes no sense, and the article says the same thing so I just don't know what to tell you to do. I think you need to find a native English speaker to copyedit the article for you, and then reconsider the hook. The nomination can go on hold while you get this done.

- Template:U, thanks for advice which I followed (diff) and requested copy editing at GOCE. What do you think about ALT2?--Antidiskriminator (talk) 06:18, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
Why don't you ping me when the copyedit is done and we'll think about hooks then. EEng (talk) 12:08, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
- Ok. --Antidiskriminator (talk) 12:36, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
I came over at the request of Template:U. How about this:
- ALT3: ... that Šime Budinić created scripts based on Cyrillic and Glagolitic derived from Czech diacritics and Latin script to make Church writings accessible to as many 16th century Southern Slavs as possible?
Still a bit clunky, but I think it is definitely an improvement over the original. If you think it still needs further tweaking, let me know. -Pax Verbum 21:23, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
- Template:U, thank you for your effort. It is necessary to correct one thing. Cyrillic and Glagolitic which were not derived from Czech diacritics. Based on the Cyrillic and Glagolitic, Budinic created a version of Latin script which included a few Czech diacritics. To simplify things it might be a good idea to drop Czech diacritics and tweak ALT3 to be something like:
- ALT4:... that Šime Budinić created a version of the Latin script derived from Cyrillic and Glagolitic to make Church writings accessible to as many 16th century Southern Slavs as possible?
