... that Fadel al-Utol considers preserving Gaza's archaeological sites to be a way to peacefully "resist the Israeli occupation"?
Source: Fadel. Archéologie entre oubli et résistance...! [Fadel. Archaeology between oblivion and resistance...!]. 28 February 2020. Event occurs at 02:45. Retrieved 24 February 2025 – via YouTube.
Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, well sourced, neutral and plagiarism free (Earwig picks up 2.9% for a couple of minor phrases, but one is used in different context, so ok). Hook is cited to the Gaza Stories Youtube channel, which is a French, English and Palestinian project sharing human stories of the war. The video in question is in Arabic, but with French subtitles, so I'm not sure if putting it in quotation marks is suitable? (advice welcome). On notability, the YouTube video isn't contributing to that, but rather other RS. I couldn't find a guideline for DYK that said a primary source couldn't be used for a hook (but would welcome someone to point me to it). My ? for status isn't over the notability of the subject, or the nature of the hook, but rather whether the quote within should be in quotation marks. Lajmmoore (talk) 16:44, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
Lajmmoore: A good question and I'm not sure what the answer is, but how about an alternative hook that doesn't use the quote:
ALT1 ... that Fadel al-Utol considers preserving Gaza's archaeological sites to be a peaceful act of resistance against Israel?
It's sourced to the same video. Richard Nevell (talk) 19:34, 11 March 2025 (UTC)
