  • I think this hook is interesting, and it is properly sourced here and in the article. The article was recently promoted to GA and is free of any obvious copyright violations. QPQ has been done. Nice work and congratulations on the GA! I hope this gets posted with the picture as well. ⑉⑉Mccunicano☕️ 00:30, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
