Interesting place and stories, on fine sources, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed and helpful. Cute hook! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:09, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I missed that it's slightly too long. The easiest way to repair would be to omit "accidentally". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:17, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
