Article created 21 December. No issues of copyvio or plagiarism. All sources appear reliable. Hook is interesting and sourced. QPQ is done. All set to go! Thriley (talk) 02:49, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- Comment @Mx. Granger and Thriley: without objection I would like to see sections in the article. It is one big paragraph at the moment. I do not think it prevents promotion however. Bruxton (talk) 19:29, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- I added two sections. In looking at the hook, I think we need to clarify that a lawyer said it, because lawyers are often hyperbolic - especially in defense of their clients. Bruxton (talk) 19:36, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- Perhaps a hook related to the actual conditions might be better? I do like the initial hook though, even with attribution it seems best. Thriley (talk) 21:59, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
