  • Spot checks are clear, hook is directly cited (same cite for both the original and alt). Everything is suitably references, no images to check. Good to go. Miyagawa (talk) 13:35, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
  • I have made the first hook more concise. Edwardx (talk) 20:33, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
  • Let's save this for Halloween. I'll see if I can think of a more Halloween-y hook - suggestions welcomed! Prioryman (talk) 13:38, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
  • Nice one - that certainly does the trick. I think we're good to go with this one. I've stricken the first two for clarity's sake. Prioryman (talk) 21:56, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
  • The line in the article that the hook is based of off is "Tobias Menzies had been cast as Marius, a mysterious new Lycan leader who will go more than toe-to-toe with Beckinsale's Selene and her vampire clan.". That's sourced to a deadline article which supports the part about Menzies being cast as a Lycan leader, but not the rest of the statement. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 01:43, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
  • Captain Assassin! - Removing the text in the article doesn't solve the problem. The problem is that the hook isn't cited. Can you find something that supports the "takes on a vampire clan" statement? If so, please put that in the article and cite it. If not, you're going to need a different hook.

  • @The Squirrel Conspiracy: Actually it should be "werewolves" not "vampire" in the hook. Because Lycans are werewolves, and the source confirmed that actor plays their new leader. --Captain Assassin! «TCG» 02:56, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
  • ALT4 IS THE BEST!!! Thanks, @The Squirrel Conspiracy:. Hook ref verified and cited inline. Quick, get this into the queue for Halloween! Yoninah (talk) 10:28, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
