  • Hook is interesting, cited in the article, and short enough. The article is new, over 1,500 characters, and is within policy. Image is in the public domain and QPQ is done. TempleM (talk) 00:02, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
I was just about to review this article, but TempleM got here faster. Quite a fascinating phenomenon! The hook could be made a little bit more intriguing, though, perhaps by not giving away that the phenomenon is tree related. Surtsicna (talk) 00:23, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
Still good to go. This does not need to be delayed in this fashion, because an ALT has not been provided above. @Surtsicna: In my opinion, it's more functional to provide an initial alt entry from the get go, rather than waiting for someone else to possibly do so.

I did not intend to have it delayed. That is why I did not use a tick. Of course it's good to go :) Surtsicna (talk) 18:07, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
All right, and thanks for the reply. Cheers, North America1000 23:53, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
