I take, will review in the next 24 hours. (I know exactly what I'm spending this on.)--Laun chba ller 22:24, 13 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

@Lajmmoore: Long enough, new enough. QPQs done and Earwig is clean. No reason why any of them would deserve a maintenance template. As for the hook, I'd substitute "immensely witty" for "having a "souffle touch"" unless you have another idea?--Laun chba ller 01:55, 14 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

That's a good call, thank you! Lajmmoore (talk) 07:16, 14 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

I must ask for another reviewer.--Laun chba ller 13:11, 14 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

ALT2... that volumes of one writer's journalism were variously described as "prattling pieces", delivering "a snigger a minute", and "immensely witty"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lajmmoore (talk • contribs) 15:05, 16 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

Following on from above, both ALT1 and ALT2 seem fine. Personally, I have a slight preference for ALT1 ("souffle touch" is hook-y click-bait). Unless I'm missing something else about the process here, this looks good to go. -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 18:50, 5 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
