  • The article is great. I enjoyed reading it. Image is GTG. However, I found the hook to be a little bland. Any newspaper that has made it to Wikipedia is "major" in one way or another. I just don't think the hook is at par with what the article truly deserves. I did find some other interesting potential hooks like "It was the oldest cultural periodical published in Warsaw" or "It is credited with popularizing woodcut illustrations in Poland". Hooks in these regards may catch the eye of the reader better. Maybe you can provide some alternative hooks and we can go from there? Proudbolsahye (talk) 03:09, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
  • I considered those, but are they more interesting? Who cares about Warsaw publications, or woodcuts in Poland? Through perhaps we can make have two items of interest, how about ALT1: --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:12, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
  • I can't see the bit about 'oldest' in the article. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:51, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
