 * Generally well-written, although there are a number of minor issues to be addressed. The article has been tagged accordingly. -- Ohconfucius ¡digame! 04:27, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I have addressed both tags; clarified one and got rid of the controversy statement (the source didn't go into detail, and I couldn't find anything online). Anything else, preferences for the hook perhaps? Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:31, 13 August 2011 (UTC)


 * I think the original hook is fine, it being interesting yet cryptic enough. I would leave the choice of ALT hooks to others; my only comment on the alts is my feeling that ALT4 is the weakest by a large margin. Ohconfucius  ¡digame! 03:00, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Any reason for the x in neutrality? Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:13, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Inadvertance. I copied the table and must have not noticed the cross. Apologies. -- Ohconfucius ¡digame! 16:26, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
