. Meets all of our requirements. Off-line resources accepted in good faith. Good to go.--Epeefleche (talk) 07:04, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
Actually, Bono doesn't: his countoff is "uno, dos, tres, catorce" (in Spanish), according to the article. The direct quote in the hook is misleading, if not inaccurate, unless it also explains it was in Spanish. BlueMoonset (talk) 07:10, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
- Eh ... I could live with it perhaps for a hook, but on second thought ... since it is in quotes ... probably best to go with what he actually says (or add "in Spanish").--Epeefleche (talk) 07:35, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
- Good point; that hadn't crossed my mind. Alt:
