Date and length fine. However @Whispyhistory:, I can't see the claim in the source. IT says first to get a licence but not first to develop weed based medicine. QPQ done, no close paraphrasing. Just need that fixed and I'll have another look. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 20:26, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for reviewing @The C of E:...will go through article again and ping you back if that is okay with you. Whispyhistory (talk) 04:36, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

Thank you. I am approving alt1a as it's a British based hook so seems right to use the correct terminology. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 20:51, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
