  • GA on April 6, plenty long (10,744 characters), neutral and well-cited throughout, with no close paraphrasing or copyvio concerns.

  • ALT1: 152 characters, cited in article to several sources which each support the hook fact.

I think I prefer ALT1 or ALT2 among these but they all work. QPQ done, no image submitted. Good to go! —Collint c 14:06, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
