ALT0: ... that a peace monument(pictured) was erected for Turkish journalist Abdi İpekçi in the place that he was shot and killed by an assassin 21 years earlier?
ALT1: ... that Gürdal Duyar sculpted the Abdi İpekçi Peace Monument(pictured) to be erected on the 21st anniversary of Abdi İpekçis 1979 assassination in the place where that assassination took place?
ALT2: ... that a monument(pictured) by Gürdal Duyar was erected in 2000 by the Municipality of Şişli in the place of, and on the 21 anniversary of, the 1979 assasination of Abdi İpekçi?
ALT6: ... that in 2000, 21 years after the 1979 assassination of journalist Abdi İpekçi, a monument(pictured), sculpted by Gürdal Duyar, was erected in the location on the street where the killing took place?
Nominated a bit too late but willing to IAR on it. No prose issues in the article. There are a lot of hooks to choose from. Shorter hooks tend to be less boring, and I don't think the mention of Gürdal Duyar is super necessary. All of the hooks are approved, but kinda like ALT0 and ALT4(b) the most by a small margin. Entirely on the promoter to decide. Photo is properly licensed and can go on the main page. ~StyyxTalk?20:25, 14 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
