New enough and large enough expansion. QPQ present. Hook quote verified to book source and wildly interesting! I even contributed a proper link to the radio station. No textual issues or copyvio. Good to go. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 06:35, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Carter said this when he was the governor of Georgia or the president? Also, suggesting to add this in the hook as well; the reader might be interested in knowing that? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 12:59, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - The quote comes from a 1992 book by Carter, meaning he said this after retiring from politics. -JJonahJackalope (talk) 14:32, 1 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - Haven't taken a look at the source, but perhaps, what do you think about ALT0a:

ALT0a ... that regarding the Henry Grady Hotel's role in the politics of Georgia, former governor Jimmy Carter once said, "[m]ore of the state's business was probably conducted in the Henry Grady than in the state capitol"?
