Interesting article on good sources. All the hooks are sourced, but have many links taking attention away from the river, think about that, please. At least move the river to front of the sentence? Mention Native Americans? I like the first image best in that size. Please add pictured to the ALTs if you want to use them. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:51, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
Not quite sure what you mean. I don't see the links as being problematic; they link to things that would help a reader understand the import of the hook. I don't see how we could add anything related to the Native Americans based on what we have. As for images, there are three, one for each hook. Daniel Case (talk) 21:04, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
Your choice ;) - (I learned that readers should NOT understand the article, but click on it to understand. In the German Wikipedia's equivalent section, a hook has one and only one link,which makes sense to me.) Can you write a bit more lead, to get rid of that tag?
original hook preferred, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:28, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
