How is it interesting that a band moved to a different place? SL93 (talk) 05:47, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

The band actually moved from India to Bangladesh (I've slightly changed the hook), so thought it would be an interesting hook. Can you propose an alternative hook please? Thanks. --Zayeem ^(talk) 08:20, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

ALT1: ... that the folk-rock band Bangla's debut album, which featured several unknown folk songs, sold some hundred thousand copies in the first two weeks of its release? SL93 (talk) 14:38, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

Also,

- the article is new enough and long enough with reliable references and no plagiarism. I will let the promoter choose whatever hook that they want. SL93 (talk) 14:38, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

If ALT1 is to be used, it will have to be verified by a user other than either the one who suggested it or the nominator. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 20:45, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

Ok I'll go with ALT1.--Zayeem ^(talk) 11:43, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

ALT1 needs an independent reviewer. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:52, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

ALT1 is good to go for inclusion in DYK! Per SL93's above review, the article and hook meet with DYK criteria and the information provided within the hook is properly cited within the article's text, utilizing references in line with Wikipedia guidelines. Let's move this one on! -- Caponer (talk) 04:21, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
