A fact from Nana Nuriana appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 2 February 2023 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that when West Java governor Nana Nuriana ran for reelection in 1998, he faced fifteen challengers?

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
Interesting:
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Pretty much meets the requirements, but I see one issue: the ALT1 hook states that when West Java governor Nana Nuriana ran for reelection in 1998, he faced sixteen competitors while I read in the article his candidacy was challenged with seventeen gubernatorial candidates running for the office – was it sixteen or seventeen? Also, I'll AGF on the sources, both of which I am unable to read. BeanieFan11 (talk) 01:16, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Seventeen participants including himself, or sixteen competititors against him. Juxlos (talk) 01:48, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Another editor brought up something regarding ALT1, so I decided to cross it out just to be safe. Juxlos (talk) 13:54, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Juxlos and BeanieFan11: Might be just an opinion, but I am not seeing what is interesting about the hook. Bruxton (talk) 18:34, 19 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Needs a more interesting hook I think. ALT2 is clumsy IMO. Bruxton (talk) 16:32, 21 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
What was the issue with ALT1? BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:05, 21 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
@BeanieFan11: Well, not much exactly. Another user pointed out it was 16 total not 16+1. Unstruck. Also @Bruxton:. Juxlos (talk) 16:28, 23 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
I will promote ALT1 Bruxton (talk) 17:16, 23 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Juxlos: Apparently, the statement from book cited for this statement is a bit misleading. The 16 candidates that were mentioned in the book was actually to-be candidates (bakal calon) instead of candidates (calon). I've searched for some Kompas sources that I've saved regarding the gubernatorial election and here's what they say about the gubernatorial election process:
DPRD Jawa Barat Kamis (5/2) sore mengakhiri masa penjaringan usulan bakal calon gubernur periode 1998-2003 dengan total usulan yang masuk 16 nama dari 79 aspirasi. Hari terakhir penjaringan diwarnai kejutan dengan masuknya usulan resmi untuk Mayjen TNI Agum Gumelar (Pangdam VII Wirabuana).
Dari 16 calon yang terdaftar, terdapat delapan tokoh dari keluarga besar ABRI (KBA). Empat di antaranya masih menyandang pangkat jenderal aktif, yakni Mayjen TNI Adang Ruchiatna, Mayjen TNI Tayo Tarmadi, Mayjen TNI Rustandi dan Mayjen TNI Agum Gumelar. Sedang empat lainnya sudah purnawirawan, yakni R Nuriana (gubernur Jabar sekarang), Rosadi Brataadmadja, Soedradjat Nataatmadja serta HMA Sampurna. Sementara delapan calon dari sipil masing-masing Prof Ir Wiranto Arismunandar, Prof Dr Yuyun Wirasasmita, Rachmat Witoelar, Ir Soenoto, Momon Gandasasmita, Tatang Suhendar, Dr Diharna, serta Udin Koswara.
