Substantial overview full of details, on excellent sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I see a problem in having such a broad range to pick a short snappy thing from, but confess that none of the hooks leaves me happy. What I like best in the first suggestion is that the piping is moderate, while in both others, it borders Easter egg. As a reader, I would want to reach a woman's bio when clicking her name, not this broad thing. In the first hook, there's no history, - perhaps one item to hint at that could be added? ... that while ??? in the history, in the 21st century it fueled revolution? - Perhaps a completely different fact, or two? If not, I can approve the original. I trust that there will be architecture when it appears ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:40, 11 May 2021 (UTC)- I forgot the minor thingy that one ref misses a title. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:54, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
- I added three more hooks, taking you up on your suggestion. - And the title issue is fixed, thanks for pointing it out.Munfarid1 (talk) 19:19, 12 May 2021 (UTC)

... that the Khartoum School of Modern Art florished during the 1960s and early 70s, but only received late recognition through an exhibition at the Tate Modern gallery in 2013?Source: https://www.tate.org.uk/art/art-terms/k/khartoum-school - ALT4:
... that Modern Art in Sudan was thriving from the 1960s up to the 80s, but was suppressed for almost 40 years, until its revival in the Sudanese Revolution?Source: as ALT1- Thank you for the offers which I like much better. Let's see if we can streamline a bit.

- What do you think? Main page readers don't want to study ;) - I think ALT3 is fine but not as strong as the others--Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:02, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
