  • These two articles are new enough and long enough. Not all the hook facts seem to be mentioned in the articles, also the hook is too long (233 characters), so a shorter hook is needed. The articles are neutral and I detected no copyright or plagiarism issues. Earwig produced a 93% likelihood of copyvio for Interregnum (Transjordan) but the text concerned seems to have been copied from Mandate for Palestine and originated in Wikipedia and not elsewhere. The image is in the public domain. Two QPQs have been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:54, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
@Cwmhiraeth: thank you for the comments. I believe these have now been addressed. Onceinawhile (talk) 10:34, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
