  • Age, length, hook all check out. Offline hook refs AGF. Very impressive article. One thing: Could you add a ref to the quote in the lead? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 09:53, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
Thanks; now added (I've just checked my copy of Antram and Morrice to make sure it was p174). Hassocks5489 (tickets please!) 11:31, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Could you add the reference next to the quote in the first paragraph, please? Yoninah (talk) 14:14, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
Oh sorry, I see the one you mean! I'll just try and dig it out now... Hassocks5489 (tickets please!) 14:37, 11 December 2011 (UTC) — Luckily it was in the first place I looked: Antram and Morrice p168. Hassocks5489 (tickets please!) 14:39, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Great, everything looks good now. Offline hook ref AGF. I prefer the original hook, but ALT1 is also good. Yoninah (talk) 15:21, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
