 * Symbol confirmed.svg New enough, long enough, neutrality and inline citation checks, refs checks, qpq done. good 2 go.--BabbaQ (talk) 20:06, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg This is a great hook, but the part about the Maupoleum being ugly isn't cited, and nowhere in the article does it say "sons of the gods". Yoninah (talk) 21:06, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Yoninah, "Godenzonen" is a common nickname for the club. Do you want me to add that to the Caransa article and source it? I've added sources for ugliness. Drmies (talk) 00:14, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, if it's going to appear in the hook, it should be mentioned in the article. Yoninah (talk) 08:51, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * OK, but it's going to look really stupid, and afterward I'll remove it rightaway. Drmies (talk) 15:55, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Symbol voting keep.svg Really? I think it was very clever the way you combined the "sons of the gods" explanation with "Caransajax". Article is new enough, long enough, well referenced, most refs foreign-language so AGF. QPQ done. Image is public domain. Hook refs AGF/verified and cited inline. Good to go.
