- Hook is interesting and has 150 characters
I'm having trouble finding which source is for the hook. I see where it's stated in the article, but there is no citation after that sentence. DYK reviewing guide says the hook fact in the article must be immediately followed by an inline citation. The sourcing is mostly that which I cannot access, but I can AGF on that. So would you please add a citation immediately following the sentence?
