Croatian independence referendum, 1991

(

)

... that Parliament of Croatia (pictured) declared independence of Croatia from Yugoslavia assembled in an INA office building because of security concerns?

Note: 15 January 2012 would be preferred date for this DYK nom if successful since that would mark the 20th anniversary of international recognition of independence declared pursuant to the referendum that this article covers.

I've made a few copyedits but otherwise it seems OK. AGF on the offline and Croatian-language sources; the article is well-referenced and informative. However, I'd suggest an alternative hook as follows. Prioryman (talk) 09:29, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

ALT1 ... that when the Croatian Parliament issued Croatia's declaration of independence from Yugoslavia, it left its usual building (pictured) for fear that it would be bombed by the Yugoslav Air Force?

The Alt1 hook seems alright to me.--Tomobe03 (talk) 10:39, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

I've never before asked for a specific date DYK appearance, so do I need to post a request someplace or is the above note sufficient?--Tomobe03 (talk) 00:13, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

That's sufficient. I've moved the nom template to the Special occasion holding area. --PFHLai (talk) 04:38, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
