 * Symbol voting keep.svg Hook size and neutrality do not appear to be an issue. The article was moved to the main space just last week, so it meets the "new" criteria. It discusses a subtopic that is specific enough to differentiate itself from the main Featherwork article. There is no copyvio (at least based on material available online) and no content disputes whatsoever. It is entirely sourced by book sources, but the ISBN and topics check out (i.e. I'm AGF that the material is accurate). If one of the hooks could be sourced by a reliable online reference, I would change my posture to Symbol confirmed.svg. -   Ca ri bb e a  n ~ H. Q.  13:38, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * That requirement does not seem fair to me. Off-line sources are as valid as on-line sources. If you have a reason to doubt the validity of the off line sources you should take steps to get access to them through a library. If you do not have a specific reason to doubt them then per AGF there is no reason not to pass the article.User:Maunus ·ʍaunus·snunɐw· 19:26, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Hello. I am not holding the article, in practice there is very little difference between Symbol confirmed.svg and Symbol voting keep.svg.  Per this guide, using Symbol voting keep.svg means that the hook's nomination is supported and that the accuracy of the references is accepted per AGF. -   Ca ri bb e a  n ~ H.
