Kazimierz Konopka[edit]
- ... that Polish jacobin activist, official and officer of the Polish Legions, Kazimierz Konopka, gained notoriety for his involvements in the unrest and hangings during the Kościuszko Uprising?

Article: length fine, includes inline citations to offline sources, no prose/formatting issues. Hook: Foreign language source AGF. Interest acceptable. Current hook is, however, too long at 232 characters including spaces; would need to be reduced below the absolute maximum (per DYK reviewing guidelines) 200. A minor concern is that the nature of Konopka's involvement in the hangings is not clarified in the article. Deserter1 10:59, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
- Shortened the hook, should be ok. Sources are unclear and even contradictory on the details of his involvement (different versions of the story). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 00:41, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
Hook size now fine (196 chars) and I accept that leaving the description at 'involvements' is an understandable compromise. Ready to go with AGF for foreign language source. Deserter1 10:20, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
