... that the decree on the expulsion of the Jews from Dubrovnik made exception for physicians and was not consistently enforced? Source: "This perception ... was responsible for an edict of expulsion on May 4, 1515. ... the government exempted Jewish physicians. [These laws] were never fully enforced nor were they to last long" Birnbaum, Marianna D. (2003). The Long Journey of Gracia Mendes. Central European University Press. p. 68.

ALT1: ... that the Jewish ghetto of Dubrovnik initially consisted of one street (pictured) walled in on both sides with a gate that was locked at night? Source: The [ghetto] was set up ... on Loijarska street, later called Zudioska. ... The street was walled in on both ends and a gate was built into one wall. Residents had to be inside the walls at night when the gate was locked. Birnbaum, Marianna D. (2003). The Long Journey of Gracia Mendes. Central European University Press. p. 68.

ALT2: ... that the Jewish community of Dubrovnik grew due to the expulsions of Jews and
Marranos from the Iberian peninsula? Source: It is a well-known fact that, after expulsion from Spain (1492), and later from Portugal (1498), Sephardic Jews travelled along various routes in search for a new homeland. One of the countries they were directed to was the Ottoman Empire, at that time developing into a powerful state which welcomed and tolerated the banished Jews, who brought with them their vast knowledge and culture. Ginio, Alisa Meyuhas (1992). Jews, Christians, and Muslims in the Mediterranean World After 1492. Taylor & Francis. p. 190.

watching the nomination until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Moved to mainspace a day before nomination. Long enough. QPQ done. No copyvio detected. All three hooks are interesting, but I think ALT0 would benefit from a date.
