  • Can NOT find hook reference as indicated. Can you show me more specifically (pg and where on page). Otherwise article length (~5,000 characters) and date (Jan 16) are fine, no copyvio or plagiarism concerns, reliable sources are used. Picture is public domain art due to age.--Doug Coldwell talk 21:58, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

Everything looks good now. Thanks for designating where the reference is for the hook.--Doug Coldwell talk 12:28, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
