- Comment: Hook 0 is perhaps most interesting, but probably due to linking to non-DYK content. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:08, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

@Piotrus: This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts of ALT0 are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. The position of ALT1 is less clear, - which sentence(s) support it? You could instead have a hook related to the practice of some publishers in delaying sending the first copy of a book to the Ministry until after it had gone on sale in bookshops. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:50, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Cwmhiraeth: For ALT1, see sources in Censorship_in_Poland#Partitions and Censorship_in_Poland#World_War_II, as well as Censorship_in_Poland#People's_Republic_of_Poland. It is pretty obvious censorship was most intense during the occupation times (partitions/WWII), and then during the communist puppet state time, compared to the sovereign periods. The hook you propose sounds interesting too, but I struggle to create a hook that is short enough (200 chars?). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:21, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
Striking ALT1 because of not meeting the inline citation rule and approving ALT0. I couldn't think of short enough hook for the other fact either. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:11, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
