  • Both articles are long enough and new/expanded enough. Double QPQ has been done. No obvious copyvio concerns. Suggested hook facts appear interesting and accurate, but aren't really stated as such in the articles, and the citation given here doesn't quite say the same thing. Can the citations/connection to the hook be made more precise? —Kusma (t·c) 10:25, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
  • @Kusma: Alt hook below. Morgan695 (talk)
  • ALT2:... that the magazines Pulp and Animerica Extra have been called "instrumental in disseminating manga culture" in North America? Source: The Rough Guide to Manga, "[Viz] also launched several magazines, which were instrumental in disseminating manga culture, including […] Animerica Extra (1998-2004) and Pulp (1997-2002)"
  • @Morgan695: Happy to approve ALT2 (but it would improve things to have the "instrumental" claim also in the article Animerica Extra, and to also cite it to The Rough Guide to Manga there). Kusma (t·c) 16:06, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
