 * Symbol confirmed.svg This substantial article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited and the article is neutral. I don't believe there are any copyright issues. I prefer ALT1 as it is not clear in ALT0 to what article the hook pertains. The date of the occupation was January 2nd, so I think "since New Year's Day 2016" is unacceptable and have altered ALT1 accordingly. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:26, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
