 * Symbol question.svg Impressive, but this would have more oomph if the hook was shorter. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:08, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Added possible ALT hook--Godot13 (talk) 18:27, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Very good. New hook is short enough and interesting. Image is free and correctly licensed. Article is new enough and long enough, well referenced, and appears free of close paraphrasing and copyvios. Good to go. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:45, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
