Hook: Short enough, interesting, article and hook don't match: article says "is", hook says "was". Also, Hamamelidaceae is not given a common name in the article. Image looks good.

Article: New enough, long enough, referenced well, AGF on offline references

Summary:

Hook and article need to agree before this can be promoted. Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:15, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Fothergilla vernacular name witchalder added to the article per the article reference. Hook adjusted to match article.--Kev min § 16:48, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
