Dwkaminski Can you explain what is not interesting about the hook and what should be reworded? The hook information is clearly in the article - "Prior to being inducted into the Iowa Women's Hall of Fame in 2022, Schipper wrote letters to prior winners and went to their recognition ceremonies.", "As part of that organization, Schipper developed it, discussed matters with legislators, and testified in court", and "Schipper testified during Shanahan's trial as an expert in domestic violence." The text matches are three quotes and names of organizations. SL93 (talk) 20:31, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
Fair enough on mentioned in the article. For interest, just going by the DTYK checklist - Is the hook mentioned in the article and likely to be perceived as unusual or intriguing by readers with no special knowledge or interest? Takea look a the Ferak source - it mentions that she testified in 115 separate court cases. I think that would make a more interesting hook.Dwkaminski (talk) 20:40, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
ALT1 ... that Laurie Schipper, who was inducted into the Iowa Women's Hall of Fame in 2022, testified to support a woman who murdered her abusive husband?" I changed two of the quotes. SL93 (talk) 20:47, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
Pinging Dwkaminski. SL93 (talk) 20:47, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
ALT1 is more interesting and approved. Copyvio score was reduced to 38.7% - violation unlikely. The score is all driven by proper nouns and the quote. Thank you for the changes! Dwkaminski (talk) 13:25, 4 April 2025 (UTC)
