5x expansion done, long enough, hook is good, Earwig is ok, hook is interesting imo, I think we can approve. Lettler^{hello • contribs} 22:26, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The sources say that the club is "dubbed" and "revered" oldest. I will add this to the hook, and hope that it is not a WP:WEASEL. Lightburst (talk) 03:47, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
