Generally looks good—the article is just about long enough and new enough, neutral and cited—but I don't see a specific reference to the proposed hook in the article. ALT1 I do see, and it is cited inline. So I would recommend going with that one as we stand, even though the primary proposed hook is in my opinion better. If you can find a citation for the primary hook that would be great. Cheers — Cliftonian (talk) 13:48, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
- I agree it will have to be the Alt because we can't say for certain that no woman has had her signature on a British banknote as there were once hundreds of private banks and Scottish and Welsh banks etc. Philafrenzy (talk) 17:07, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
- Well then there we go. Passing ALT1. — Cliftonian (talk) 17:56, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
