Morleigh Steinberg[edit]
- ... that as a choreographer and dancer, Morleigh Steinberg has turned herself into noodles, but to much of the public she is known for being next to The Edge?

- Good to go on everything (size, time, cites, etc.), but the hook needs to be improved. What does "known for being next to the Edge mean? I had to read the article to understand that she was his wife. Also not thrilled about the hook being her relationship to a rockstar rather than any of her own notable achievements.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:28, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
- That's the whole idea of a hook, isn't it, to get you to read the article? And the hook is the whole sentence, over half of which relates to her profession. I can change it if really necessary, but I want to make clear what I was trying to do. A DYK competes for the reader's attention with everything else on the main page and I was trying to get some extra attention for this one. Wasted Time R (talk) 02:02, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
- Ambiguous wording really isn't the way to go for a DYK, IMO, but maybe that's just me. A U2 reference is still likely to get more attention than her solo work, so maybe something about how she's worked with U2 or was the belly dance on tour, etc. Something she's done herself.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 02:31, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

Intriguing wording, good to go with ALT1.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 02:59, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
