GA in good time, and clearly long enough. I copyedited the hooks: "other international markets" makes no sense when the hook doesn't mention the American market. It might be better to instead mention some of the countries where it was platinum, which is a higher honour, and includes Italy and Sweden. The second hook seems the most interesting; all are verified. QPQ done. Note that nations are not linked in most cases, this is up to the admins to decide of course.
