Did you know... that when Edgar Jaffé died,
D. H. Lawrence wrote to his widow to say that he was glad?
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,

Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Article meets DYK requirements and a QPQ has been provided. I didn't find any close paraphrasing. Unfortunately, none of the hooks proposed are suitable at the moment. For one thing, except for ALT2, all of them are lacking footnotes at the relevant sentences. Secondly, as much as I like history and know who Max Weber is, none of the hooks seem to be hooky or important unless you have a knowledge of history or the social sciences. I'm also not a fan of ALT0 not just because it seems specialist but also because it seems to focus more on his wife than the subject. If there's any hook here with potential, it's probably ALT4, but the current version is a bit hard to read and the point of the hook, while I understand it, might not be easy to get by other readers.
