@Narutolovehinata5: OK, since I didn't mention it, the hook is cited within the article. Daniel Case (talk) 06:06, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but think the ALT1 should be written more clearly. We don't really need to spell out the whole case name, do we? Could we write:
  • ALT1a: ... that a 2003 English court case ruled that someone who lies about having sharp items in their pocket while being searched can be charged with assault if the searcher is injured as a result? Yoninah (talk) 00:41, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
@Yoninah: Yes, this works better, especially because that way we know what country the case came from. Daniel Case (talk) 04:18, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
