Verified that the article is long enough, that there are no plagiarism concerns through the Copyvios tool and spotchecking, and that the hook is sourced in the article. Cunard (talk) 00:12, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- I also used this source (which is also cited in the article) to verify the hook. Cunard (talk) 00:12, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
