Did You Know Hook[edit]

Wiki is way too hard to use. However, here is a great hook for the article:

Did You Know that the element mendelevium is usually synthesized by bombarding einsteinium with alpha particles?

Really, it's too rich.

Did You Know that the element honouring Dmitri Mendeleev is usually created by bombarding the element honouring Albert Einstein with alpha particles?

This was run as a DYK on 17 September 2014, when the hook was "Did you know ... that the discoverers of mendelevium had to seek the permission of the United States government to propose it be named after Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev, father of the periodic table?" (see the talk page headers). Double sharp (talk) 15:16, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
