 * Symbol possible vote.svg Two problems: a) one point of fact unreferenced; one ref which does not support stated facts; Otherwise AGF on offline sources; b) Hook a little long (180 characters), shorter would be better.
 * Both should be adequately referenced now, if I understand what you meant. --Coemgenus (talk) 15:44, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Coemgenus. The sources cited are offline, but naturally I AGF that they have been used accurately. So we're good to go. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:01, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg Referencing problems resolved, so we're good to go with AGF on offline sources. Others may wish to suggest a shorter hook. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 18:02, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I added an alt hook, but it's nearly as long. I'm open to suggestions. --Coemgenus (talk) 18:21, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
