• Everything checks out: newness, sourcing, hook interest, lack of plagiarism, and QPQ. Preferring that ALT1 be promoted as that seems to be the hook that appeals to the broadest audience. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 13:03, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

• Promoting ALT0, which is quite hooky. ALT1 is a little disingenuous, as he "opted" for a basketball career because of an injury. Yoninah (talk) 12:45, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
