Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation

Overall: Looks good. AGF on the offline hook source. @Generalissima: The only thing is that I think there needs to be a direct cite for the sentence For this invention, White received a medal from First Consul Napoleon Bonaparte. BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:48, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

@Generalissima and BeanieFan11: There's a chunk of WP:WHITESPACE between the multi-image and the gallery, could something be done about this?--Launchballer 17:56, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
@Launchballer: That is intentional, I added a clear template to prevent sandwiching issues on wider monitors. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 18:08, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
