===Request for comment===
A suggested historical hook for a DYK on Kurt Wolff (aviator) is under discussion because reviewers believe that mention of a 1917 event in certain words will spark rioting in the streets.[[User:Georgejdorner|Georgejdorner]] ([[User talk:Georgejdorner|talk]]) 21:51, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

*What are you asking people to comment on? --[[User:evrik|evrik]]&nbsp;<sup>([[User talk:evrik|talk]])</sup> 19:53, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
*That is an extremely biased, misleading, and missing-the-bigger-picture summary of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3ADid_you_know&type=revision&diff=1001069125&oldid=1001067833 archived discussion at WT:DYK], which also included significant discussion on how boring and non-hooky the suggested hook is. —[[User:David Eppstein|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein|talk]]) 20:53, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
*The original hook is just not that interesting (X put machine guns on his walls). It might be more interesting with some context, but the nominator isn't interested in that, or indeed in anything that isn't the original hook. So much so that they trashed the latest proposal even though it echoed one of their own sentences in the article's lede. I believe one person thought this might not be the best time for such a hook, but the reason the rest of us have chimed in is that the hook doesn't meet the basic "interesting" criteria.

*{{replyto|Georgejdorner|Evrik|David Eppstein|BlueMoonset}} The DYK hook should be discussed at [[Template:Did you know nominations/Kurt Wolff (aviator)]], not here. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] &#x1f339; ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 18:49, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
** "People are so on edge from Capitol Hill rioters and other gun-toting anarchists that putting this on the main page, sounding like some college kid decorating his room, is asking for trouble."
** This quote is what sparked my Rfc. Pardon me for bothering the WP community with such petty concerns as censorship. It is much easier to critique me for insisting that reviewers conform to the same standards as nominators.[[User:Georgejdorner|Georgejdorner]] ([[User talk:Georgejdorner|talk]]) 04:30, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
