- This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts have inline citations but the sources are not available to me so are accepted in good faith. The image is in the public domain, the article is neutral and I was unable to check for close paraphrasing because the sources are largely offline. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:46, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
- The hook is a little dry. How about:
- ALT1:
... that prominent West Virginia businessman and real estate developer Howard Llewellyn Swisher (pictured) also wrote poetry and short stories? - ALT2: ... that West Virginia businessman and real estate developer Howard Llewellyn Swisher (pictured) also edited a literary journal in which he referred to himself as "Chief of the Tribe"?
