  • I made one minor copyedit ("serve" is often abused for simply "doing the job one is paid for"), but that's it: the article is absolutely fine, and I agree with the GA review (which seems to have been done in a conscientious and comprehensive manner). All aspects of the hook are properly verified. It's good to go. Drmies (talk) 01:58, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
