- @Generalissima: I have taken it upon myself to review this article for DYK approval.Davidbena (talk) 17:16, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I am not sure if it matters so much, but perhaps the hook can be reworded to read:
ALT1 ... that the Yiddish poet David Einhorn levelled criticism at other Jewish writers in Berlin whom he accused of being "bourgeois intellectuals" and out-of-touch with their fellow migrants?
This seems to be more in keeping with your own statement in the article, namely, He frequented the Romanisches Café, which became a central meeting place for Jewish migrant intellecutals in Berlin, although began to strongly oppose the "coffee house culture" of many of the migrants, whom he decried as bourgeois intellectuals.

Another option might be to emphasize that this happened before WWII, during "pre-war Berlin".Davidbena (talk) 17:33, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- ALT2 ... that, prior to WWII, the Jewish poet David Einhorn levelled criticism at other Jews in Berlin whom he accused of being "bourgeois intellectuals" and out-of-touch with their fellow migrants?
- @Davidbena: Oh, sorry - I didn't see this until now! I'm okay with the first ALT hook, that is a bit more accurately phrased. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 05:35, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
- As for DYK criteria, the article is long enough, as well as new enough. There are no serious editorial or content issues. An alternate hook has been suggested; it is short enough and is interesting. Gives adequate citation. There are no copyright violations, to the best of my knowledge.Davidbena (talk) 21:45, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
