Overall:
@Aoidh: Great article. Though for hook one i'd propose ... that Ball Ground, Georgia was named what it is because the land was originally used by Native Americans to play stickball? or something like that because just saying "was named" seems like a grammar mistake. I'm not too sure though so i'm waiting on your approval. Onegreatjoke (talk) 22:46, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: I was trying to figure out how best to word that so I'm more than open to suggestions. What about ..."that Ball Ground, Georgia was so named because the land..."? - Aoidh (talk) 22:49, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Aoidh: Maybe we could do ... that Ball Ground, Georgia got its name because the land... Onegreatjoke (talk) 22:52, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: That works for me, I've updated the first hook accordingly, thanks. - Aoidh (talk) 22:56, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
