New as of 31 July, long enough, sources check out, Earwig check performed and the only thing it picked up is a direct quote that's marked as such. Both hooks are good but the main (non-alt) hook is far more interesting. All looks good! The Land (talk) 07:47, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Dumelow and The Land: Possible suggestion for a quirky hook: ALT2: ... that a Punch Bowl in Lancashire is haunted? - but already interesting and fine as-is. Kingsif (talk) 18:15, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
