• ... that the diamond mining ship Peace in Africa not only provides an alternative to blood diamonds, but also helped lay a telecommuncations cable between the US and Japan?

• You forgot to bold the article in the hook, and you are missing the word but after the comma in your sentence, and you are supposed to remove the ellipsis (...) from the end of the sentence. --Odie5533 (talk) 05:24, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Bolded, changed "it" to "but", removed stray ellipsis. Haus^Talk 05:54, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Sounds good. Hook is now good, 5x expanded, and WP:AGF on offline source. --Odie5533 (talk) 06:19, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

This might be too cutesy, but the idea made me chuckle:

ALT 1: ... that in 1992, Dock Express 20 destroyed the Terminator?

Cheers. Haus^Talk 06:40, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Made me laugh too! A little comic relief for a list of obscure facts. Might help introduce the maritime world to pop culture fans. I'd go with ALT 1 also. Would be a good April 1st hook. Djembayz (talk) 12:25, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

While definitely amusing, I would prefer a more serious hook. However, if this is accepted by the DYK people... heck, why not! Tupsumato (talk) 12:33, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

• ALT2: ... that in 1992, the future Peace in Africa destroyed the Terminator?

Well, it's true... Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:31, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Certainly more eye catching than my suggestion, I support this. Haus^Talk 03:09, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

I like the original one the best, but all three appear to check out. --Odie5533 (talk) 04:57, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
