Length and date ok. QPQ done. Photo free on Commons. Close paraphrase not found. But hook fact is not supported by a directly placed ref in the article. --Soman (talk) 13:33, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Soman: I have placed an additional Cane 2024 reference at the end of the sentence in question.--Kev min § 16:34, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, all good . I added "carrion and flesh flies" in the sentence, to match the hook. --Soman (talk) 18:30, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
