- Within policy?
Hook
- Format
- Interesting?
- Accurate? Not supported by reliable sources.
- Neutral?

Requesting a new review. Reviewer above has only 5 edits and incorrectly claimed that the hooks are "[n]ot supported by reliable sources", even though sources have been provided both here and in the article. —Bloom6132 (talk) 03:45, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Yeah I don't know about that other review. I agree with the green checkmarks, the article was 5x expanded from the last version before he died. Everything is cited, nothing appears to be inaccurate to me. Hook facts are interesting enough and validated by the sources provided. QPQ is done. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:14, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
I had forgotte to review the image. It appears to be a legitimate upload, licensed as PD, so is approved. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:38, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
