  • ... that a college designed for and led by Native Americans was active in Chicago from 1974 to 2005?

Created by Nigetastic (talk). Self-nominated at 17:31, 28 December 2023 (UTC).

  • Article is new enough (submitted on day of creation) and more than long enough (6853 characters). Well sourced with citations. Photographs appear to be OK to use on Wikipedia. No apparent copyvio in text; AGF on offline sources. Well written and neutral in tone. QPQ is apparently not required, as nominator's talk page suggests that this is only their fourth DYK nomination. This leaves the hook, which is problematic because it is too "pat" – i.e., there is too much information contained in the hook, so there is no compelling reason for casual readers to click on the link to find out more. Simple solution might be to simply delete the years from the hook:
Other suggestions for ALT hooks are welcome, also from other editors. All in all a good addition to Wikipedia. Nice work. Cielquiparle (talk) 06:08, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is very basic, but if the goal is to get people to click on it, something of this simplicity might do the trick.
