@ThaddeusB: QPQ now done. 23W 03:18, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, good to go now. Promoter may pick the hook as both are verified. --ThaddeusB (talk) 17:06, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this but have some questions. The first hook is good, but why is "ghosts" in quotes? The direct quote from the source is "unleashes ghosts". Perhaps the hook could be reworded to incorporate the whole quote, "unleashes ghosts"? And ALT1 is not cited inline (at the end of the sentence in which it appears).

@Yoninah: Cited. I only put ghosts in quotes because the context made the meaning seem vaguely metaphorical (literal ghosts, or past events that come to haunt her, or what). Since I had to make unleashing gerund and give Marceline's expanded name, I figured I'd only quote "ghosts". 23W 22:31, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, I don't understand how you derive those metaphorical meanings from the source. All it says is that she "unleashes ghosts from Marceline's past". Perhaps you could say:
ALT2: ... that in a subplot of the upcoming Adventure Time miniseries, Princess Bubblegum "unleashes ghosts" from Marceline the Vampire Queen's past? Yoninah (talk) 23:07, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

That works. We'll need @ThaddeusB: to check it off though, right? 23W 23:11, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Not necessarily. I just tweaked the language from your original hook. Both ALT1 and ALT2 are verified and cited inline. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 23:38, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
