This hook is super interesting and the article is great. I think maybe the hook needs rewording though as it's not clear that this "peace" came more than four decades later. How about "four decades after missing an event at the 1960 Summer Olympics, Suriname's sole athlete was found to have not "overslept"? I'm also waiting on the plagiarism checker to worki again.

Arcahaeoindris So that would be "... that four decades after missing an event at the 1960 Summer Olympics, Suriname's sole athlete was found to have not "overslept"? " Arconning ( talk) 15:06, 7 July 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Arconning: yes, that sounds good. Please can you add this as Alt1? Thanks! Arcahaeoindris ( talk) 07:55, 10 July 2024 (UTC) reply

• ALT1a: ... that four decades after missing an event at the 1960 Summer Olympics, Suriname's sole athlete was found to have not "overslept"?
• ALT1b: ... that four decades after missing an event at the 1960 Summer Olympics, Suriname's sole athlete was found to not have "overslept"?
• English isn't my mother-tongue but the hook as suggested doesn't sound quite right to me, hence I've also provided an ALT1b version. Schwede 66 08:09, 10 July 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Schwede66 Arcahaeoindris I believe it's alright now. I believe both are grammatically correct but ALT1a is more fluent. :) Arconning ( talk) 09:42, 10 July 2024 (UTC) reply
