 * Symbol confirmed.svg No copyvio, plagiarism, or close paraphrasing detected. GAey enough and recently GAey enough. Neutral. No QPQ necessary. Citations as far as the eye can see. Hook is supported by the whole article rather than any citation in particular. Passing it but I'm going to suggest an ALT as obviously a folklorist with folkloric family legends has got to be hooky (prep-builder, you choose the hook, but choose wisely as you don't want to get on the wrong side of anybody here as we all have wicked tempers and know how to hold a grudge).
 * ALT ...that the family of church minister and folklorist John Gregorson Campbell was said to have been cursed by a Bean Shìth? Belle (talk) 00:20, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Or alternatively don't pipe banshee, but I think the Alt hooks is better. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  08:13, 18 July 2014 (UTC)


 * ALT 2 that church minister and folklorist John Gregorson Campbell wrote the book Superstitions of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland 1900?

 * I oppose alt 2- it doesn't make sense, lacks italics on the book title and is wrong (he was dead at the time, so he couldn't have written it). Personally, I like the original, although Belle's suggestion is a good one! J Milburn (talk) 13:06, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

Still ready with original or ALT1 Belle (talk) 15:22, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
