... that auxiliary labels are commonly placed on medication vials to convey supplementary information about administration, side effects, or interactions? Source: doi:10.7326/0003-4819-145-12-200612190-00144 and doi:10.1002/pds.4796 - source 3/4 in the article at time of submission.- ALT1:

... that auxiliary labels placed over the cap of prescription vials are more likely to be noticed and heeded by the user than those placed on the side of the vial? Source: doi:10.18549/PharmPract.2019.2.1463 - source 9 - ALT3:
... that some auxiliary labels on prescription vials are interpreted correctly by the person reading them only 7% of the time? Source: doi:10.1111/j.1525-1497.2006.00529.x - source 5- ALT3a:
... that some auxiliary labels on prescription vials are correctly interpreted by less than 10% of readers? Source: doi:10.1111/j.1525-1497.2006.00529.x - source 5 note that the source says 7%, but "less than 10%" may be more interesting, not sure if this is allowed to make the change in the DYK hook or whether I'd have to change it in the article too.

- User:buidhe - thanks for the review - I've added some alternative hooks that are more interesting, if you'd like to take a look. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 20:30, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the update. However, ALT2 seems perhaps too obvious and after checking the source for ALT3 it seems like this figure is only for one particular label with complicated, multi-step instructions, according to one study in the US that surveyed "251 respondents, 70.9% were female and 66.1% African American" and of whom one-third tested below 7th grade reading level. The hooks presented (as well as the article) overgeneralize. Also, including a picture would help identify the subject for readers who have seen these but don't know the name.

- ALT3c: ... that a 2006 survey found that only 7.6% of participants were able to understand an auxiliary label with complex instructions?
- ALT4: ... that a 2006 survey recommended that lower literacy individuals be consulted in the design of auxiliary labels on perscription medication to improve comprehension? (t · c) buidhe 20:59, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
- User:Buidhe - Happy with either of these if you are - thanks a lot for the recommendations, this is a kinda interesting topic to try to form an interesting hook for - I'm still working on the appropriateness of specific stats for DYK hooks. I should have a moment to update the article to work with both alt3c and alt4 later today and I'll update you when I do -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 21:25, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
- Not going to ping again but I actually was able to clarify that stat in the article for alt3c, and add the information you used for alt4 (it's amazing when people schedule a meeting and then email you 10 minutes after it was to start that it's been postponed). I still prefer alt3c or a version thereof as I think it's more interesting, but I'm happy with alt4 as well. All photos in the article are actually fair use, but I'll put them all here with suggested captions as well to let you or the admin promoting choose which is best - personally I think the second one is likely best but the third may be better for showing the whole vial. Thanks -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 21:42, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Need new reviewer for ALT3c and ALT4. All the pics are free (not WP:fair use) and meet requirements, but the second and third are preferred because they are more self-evident. (t · c) buidhe 21:56, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
Approving ALT3c, but not ALT4. As Buidhe said, the images are suitably licensed, but I favour the second one, as the image in the first is not good at thumbnail size and the third image is upside down with the tablets defying gravity. Other criteria accepted from previous review. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:59, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
