Template talk:Did you know nominations/Angela Merkel

Hook[edit]

@Bruxton Hmm, maybe we should have a mention of her previous position in the hook. Thanks for pointing that out! In my cultural context, the vast majority of people know who Merkel is, but that's probably not universal. How about this: "that former German Chancellor Angela Merkel's grandfather..."; What do you think? Actualcpscm (talk) 14:20, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Actualcpscm: I think so. There may be those who do not understand why it is interesting without the title. I will add it. Bruxton (talk) 14:22, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
