Cold pad batch

Created by RAJIVVASUDEV (talk). Self-nominated at 08:25, 20 December 2022 (UTC).

  • This nom ticks all the boxes. Article created less than a week ago. Long enough, in-line citations to scientific sources, no copyvio or inappropriate paraphrasing detected. Interesting hook. QPQ has been done. This is good to go. Topshelver (talk) 14:26, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
  • @RAJIVVASUDEV and Topshelver: Couple things about the hook. First, less water and energy than what? Seems like a bit of a vague comparison. Second, while the fact is certainly neat, I'm not sure it's very hooky – like, it's fairly interesting, but I'm not sure I read that and think "oh, that's enticing, I want to know more". theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 07:26, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
    @theleekycauldron Appreciate your point. Updated ALT1. Kindly see if it works. Thanks RV (talk) 08:13, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
    @RV: That works for my first point, it provides good context, but I'm still not sure it's very hooky. I'll say that narratively, a good hook uses the encyclopedic format to tell part of a story – enough to get the reader interested in finishing the story by clicking through. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 10:22, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
