Virology (journal)[edit]

  • Per discussion with Randykitty on article's talk page I offer some further alternatives for consideration:
  • Alt2: ... that Virology is the first English-language journal to focus on viruses?
  • Alt3: ... that Virology, the first English-language journal to focus on viruses, had only three editors-in-chief from its foundation in 1955 until 2013?
  • or even Alt4: ... that the journal Virology had only three editors-in-chief from its foundation in 1955 until 2013?

5x expanded by Espresso Addict (talk). Self nominated at 08:39, 19 February 2013 (UTC).

  • I recommend Alt2 as the hook, because it is succinct and flows well, there are two reliable sources for it, and the number of editors-in-chief isn't really that remarkable (many journals only have one). Article is expanded 5X since Feb. 17, and is long enough. I don't see any policy issues. --Tryptofish (talk) 23:29, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
