New enough. Long enough. QPQ done. Dup detector found no close paraphrasing issues, copyright violations or plagiarism. NPOV. well cited. I'm struggling to find the facts in the citations that back up the first hook (although I really like the hook!). It would be very helpful if you could have an individual citation at the end of each of three sentences that relate to that hook - this is what is normally done for DYKs. The second hook is supported by the NYT source, but again that needs to be cited at the end of the sentence, not just the end of the paragraph. Edwardx (talk) 00:36, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

@Edwardx: Sure thing, should be all done now. Glad you like the hook and the article (what a smelly career - farts, space food, and broccoli)! If you need a copy of any of the sources, let me know and I can email them to you. Best, Keilana (talk) 19:42, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

I've taken the liberty of choosing a citation that confirms all three parts of the proposed hook fact ALT1 and making it the first reference after the relevant (separate) statements in the article, so that the support is easier to find. Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 03:35, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
