 * Pictogram voting keep.svg For original hook and ALT2. Impressive looking article with a substantial amount of offline sources.  Wish I could approve ALT1, as I feel it is the best hook, but while the hook fact is clearly mentioned in the article it lacks any supporting citation in the location the case is discussed in detail.  Repeated mentions of the case in other sections of the article might provide sufficient sourcing to support the hook but I am unable to verify due to offline sourcing and article text in those sections not providing enough details about facts in the hook. --Allen3 talk 11:21, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for reviewing the nomination. Well, ALT1 is supported by footnote 25, which is accessible online. — SMUconlaw (talk) 19:22, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
