 * Symbol question.svg Squeamish Ossifrage, QPQ pending. 8 Jan mainspace. 2631 B (a long list not counted in prose). Very well-referenced. No copyvio. ALT2: "vamp" not in article. Original: "the first film produced by what would become the Fox Film Corporation", not explicitly mentioned in article. Possibly denoting "First film produced by the Box Office Attractions Company"; however technically, merger of two companies formed Fox. It was not a mere renaming. However, Fox did 'replace' Box. ALT1 is good to go. AGF on refs. Redtigerxyz  Talk 12:26, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Redtigerxyz: QPQ completed for Dearcmhara. Amended text to provide direct support for ALT2. The 20th Century Fox article's treatment of this period of Fox history is a mess, and I'm simply withdrawing the original hook rather than trying to satisfy the "avoid contradictions" DYK requirement at this time (although this hook was correct).
