This substantial article is new enough and long enough. I have rewritten the hook to ALT1 because I don't believe 1940 counts as the 1930s (correct me if I am wrong). The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral, Earwig was happy and I detected no copyright issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:46, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
