""It's Not Human!": Another Example of Anthropodermic Bibliopegy Discredited". RBM: A Journal of Rare Books, Manuscripts, and Cultural Heritage. 18 (1): 29. doi:10.5860/rbm.18.1.26.

  • New article, long enough with 5036 characters of readable prose. The article is reliably sourced with inline citations. It is written in a neutral manner, complies with BLP, and there are no dispute templates. The article does not appear to plagiarize, and passes Earwig. Striking ALT2 as the weakest hook, as it could be snappier and the assertion that the African Hall is named after Brooks is not directly stated in the article. The original hook and ALT1 are both sourced and in the article. These hooks are short enough, properly formatted, and neutral. QPQ checks out. gobonobo + c 13:50, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
