  • @Dr Aaij: Almost everything looks fine, but it seems that "catalog" in the hook should be "catalogue" since that is the spelling in the reference. SL93 (talk) 06:51, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
  • SL93, please look at the source again. The reviewer seems to use "catalogue", but the poet used "catalog" and my quote is a direct quote. Thanks! Dr Aaij (talk) 21:33, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
  • I got two quotes mixed up. This is good to go. SL93 (talk) 01:55, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
  • This hook is not clear. It could also be shortened, like:
  • ALT0a: * ... that Voyage of the Sable Venus, a 79-page-long poem by Robin Coste Lewis, consists of "titles, catalog entries, or exhibit descriptions" that depict the black female form in Western art? Yoninah (talk) 18:32, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
  • Okay. SL93 (talk) 09:30, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
