- How about a pic? Template:Sister project This one on the right, for example. --PFHLai (talk) 03:34, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
The two hooks, both of which are approved, seem to disagree with each other: were Syrian hamsters domesticated in or after the 1930s? Also, pictures must appear in the article to be eligible, and at the moment, the one shown here does not. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:07, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
- Please use original hook, which is accurate. Good catch on ALT1: "after" the 1930s is not correct. As for the pic usage, how about the one I added at the top of the article? It's not as twee as the other one, but still.... SteveStrummer (talk) 02:04, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- Template:UTemplate:U I changed the text to read "in the 1930s" which matches the sources. Either picture could be included in the article, if one is desired. Hamster pictures are interesting and if this is queued as the DYK that presents a picture, either of those pictures could be placed at the top of the article.
