Both articles are new enough, and long enough. QPQs done. Hook is interesting. Passes earwig. May of the sources are not available so I am going to AGF. 00:25, 21 April 2022 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Evrik (talk • contribs)
@Drmies, Uncle G, and Evrik: The American Carrie Jenkins Harris article has a specific date of her death, but this hook has a circa date. Which one is correct? If it is the article, can you propose a reword of the hook below? Thanks. Z1720 (talk) 19:19, 24 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
Interesting. That date was added by Animalparty, but I had no idea that that was done--and from the newspaper articles I cannot conclude a specific date ("three weeks before" is a bit vague). I adjusted the hook. Drmies (talk) 21:33, 24 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
