• alt1 is rejected for being unintersting (a lot of people on the list, and someone who doesn't know about it would not care). original hook is . ltbdl☃ (talk) 06:05, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

  ltbdl, Could you explain how the original hook is interesting per WP:DYKINT? I would have assumed that a person starting a farm equipment business would have prior experience in the farm equipment industry. (The lack of such a experience would be a interesting hook) Sohom (talk) 03:09, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

  ok, i'm starting to have my doubts. maybe an alt about how he founded two farm equipment companies? ltbdl☃ (talk) 14:53, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

  Maybe something like:

  ALT 2: ... that Roy Applequist received the No-Till Innovator Award for working on a new kind of seed drill?

• @Bsoyka and ltbdl: I'm not sure the article should be primarily based on Applequist Manufacturng and the Kansas Business Hall of Fame, the latter of which doesn't seem to meet the standard definition of an RS. Can other sources be found? If not, I'm not sure the article passes WP:GNG. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 08:01, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
