Overall: Just the merger issue to take care of. I'd also propose that the hook ditch the date for a time-dependent phrase like "two months ago", though this would be dependent on when it gets accepted into the queue. Sounder Bruce 03:38, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

@SounderBruce: merge template has been dealt with. There was no info to really bring over; other details were outdated. Thanks for reviewing! ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 06:06, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
- Good to go then. I'll leave it up to the promoter if they want to modify the hook when the time comes. Sounder Bruce 06:08, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
