  • The reference checks out (from the Australia Paralympics team site), and it meets the size requirements. For people moving the article into queues, the August 29th and September 9th if someone wants to put it in a holding area. Nomader (talk) 14:30, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Hook is 218 characters, well over the maximum. Can we please have a shorter ALT? Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:56, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
  • ALT1:... that 2012 Australian Paralympic goalballer Jennifer Blow found a rock shaped like the Cool Runnings's egg and started a pre-game ritual of holding the rock and quoting from the movie before games?

  • A bit redundant and, as I've just discovered, awfully close to the original source, which is quoted in the article but not here. Proposing a changed hook (which still may be too close; would welcome another try):
ALT2 checks out. Secretlondon (talk) 20:57, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
