more from one of the sources. I also added a "citation needed" tag for one sentence; if this is a personal observation, perhaps you should remove it. I'd like to suggest a different hook direction. Though the pyramid is named after the river, perhaps something more can be implied from the name, like:
329:
Well, the idea of a DYK hook is to "hook" the reader into clicking on the article. If they don't understand the hook, they won't click on it. You have a very good image which could make the lead slot, but the hook also has to be clearer and snappier. I did some editing on the article and added some
313:) This is clearer when you read it in the article. The monument commemorates a flood, and the artist wanted to encourage people to help each other in times of need. I thought what I posted was good enough considering the limit, as the reviewer even stated that they preferred the shorter alt.
563:
of course, as it says in the hook. Two random words that happen to have the same pronunciation and the artists built a monument around that wordplay. Unless there's more to it -- I wouldn't know, I just happened to come across the article today -- but that's unusual enough for me.
414:
well, it is a bit difficult to introduce several French words in a hook for the
English Knowledge. I'm wondering if we could pipe the link in the hook and leave it in the picture caption, to get away from that "Ha! Ha!"

New, long enough, and within policy. Hook is neutral and accurately cited (I'd go with ALT1 because it's tighter, but both are within the 200 character limit.) QPQ done. This is good to go. --
478:
As this has been stuck for almost a month, I'll be reviewing your hooks. I like the thought of the hooks but I feel that they're too long. Would there be a way to make them tighter?
618:
548:, but this was my problem with the original hooks: What does yielding have to do with helping? There's no obvious connection between a pyramid - yield signs - helping.
88:
396:, who survived a flood, to help one another? I really wish I could get in the part about the céder and s'aider but if this is the only way that's fine.

is covered in 3000 yield signs because the French word for yield "céder" is pronounced the same as "s'aider", meaning 'to help someone'?

Hi, I came by to promote this, but I find the hooks completely obscure. What is the connection between the pyramid and helping people?
