Jewish Legion (Anders Army)
... that the proposal for the creation of a Jewish Legion within the Polish Anders' Army in the Soviet Union during WWII proved to be rather controversial?Source: https://www.yadvashem.org/odot_pdf/Microsoft%20Word%20-%206217.pdf- ALT1:
... that while some Jewish activists proposed to create a separate Jewish unit in the WWII Polish Armed Forces, others vocally criticized the plan?Source: same as above

- General eligibility:
- New enough:
- Long enough:
- Other problems:
- The article relies exclusively on a single source and the lead does not adequately summarize the article body. Being eligible for cleanup tags means that the article is unsuitable for DYK (in its current form).
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems |

Hook eligibility:
- Cited:
- Interesting:
- Both hooks have vague wording. That some supported and some opposed, or that it "proved to be rather controversial", are not inherently interesting qualities.
QPQ: Done. |

- I am sure I can add another source. Would you like to suggest a new hook which I could review and hopefully adopt? PS. Forgot to @Buidhe:. Also @El C: who elsewhere said he read this article, maybe you could propose a better hook for us? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 14:20, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

- How about
- ALT2:... that the planned Jewish unit in the Polish Armed Forces in the Soviet Union was described as "Jewish ghetto"?
- ALT3:... that the planned Jewish unit in the Polish Armed Forces in the Soviet Union was described as a "moral victory" of Nazism?

- @Buidhe: I am fine with those but I think we may need a pro-forma tick by a new reviewer for the hooks proposed by you? Also I'd link the Polish Armed Forces in the Soviet Union with a pipe to Anders Army. Ping User:BlueMoonset. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:43, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- How about
- Alt4
... that members of the Jewish Legion (Anders Army) came from the 325,000 Polish citizens from deported from Soviet-occupied Poland to the Soviet Union?Brzoza, Czesław; Sowa, Andrzej Leon (2009), Historia Polski 1918–1945 [History of Poland: 1918–1945] (in Polish), Kraków: Wydawnictwo Literackie, p. 695, ISBN 9788308041253 --evrik (talk) 04:49, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
Reviewing afresh, this article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts of ALT2 and ALT3 are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. ALT4 is a bit confusing. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:32, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
