  • New and long enough, all ¶ with citations, copyvio check reveals no problems. Hooks are all within size and interesting, factual, neutral, etc. QPC verified. Hooks verified with appropriate citations. I tweaked the wording in the hooks a little and approve all three. I like ALT2 the least. I also added ALT4, which is a combination of the hook and ALT1. We can let the promoter make a final choice; all are OK. - previously unsigned by User:MB
  • ALT4 is Good To Go.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 11:53, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
