  • @Bobamnertiopsis: Date and length fine, however I do have a question about the hook. What is it that makes the source reliable? Because to me it looks like a blog post. Can you shed some light on this for me please before I can proceed with the review? The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 09:57, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
  • @The C of E: Hey, C of E, thanks for asking. io9 is a blog (per its own article on our site and per its own admission), but it has behind it the editorial staff of Gizmodo, its parent site, and the post was written by a staff writer. io9 has more credibility than would a self-published blog and it's cited on ~1,000 pages on this site. Hope this helps! Best, BobAmnertiopsis∴ChatMe! 16:10, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
  • OK, I am happy with that explanation. Hook is fine then. QPQ done and no close paraphrasing. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 10:38, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
  • I have returned this from p6 because the hook is sourced to some guy on tumblr, not to io9. Gatoclass (talk) 12:04, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

New review needed. BobAmnertiopsis∴ChatMe! 05:49, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

  • ALT1 and ALT2 are 97 and 125 characters, short enough. They are both in the article. They are both cited. I can confirm ALT1 in the reference which is reliable. Reference 3 does not mention supernatural or Sherlock in this regard, so either pick another reference for that or modify the article, or give up on that ALT2 hook. So only ALT1 is good. Considering previous review and that article is fully cited and is not biased, it is good to go with ALT1. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:51, 30 October 2016 (UTC)
  • OK hook ALT2 is confirmed by the image. So either ALT1 or 2 are good to go. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:45, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
