• New, Length, Hook, Plagiarism-check OK. The referencing should be taken care of, there shouldn't be "pp. 2–27" and "pp. 105–132" - specify which pages cite what.

• I made the ref pages more specific. I pretty much left alone the sections which contain the fragments themselves, since the fragment numbers provided in the article already specify where the information is found. Rlendog (talk) 16:05, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
