- New enough, well cited, certainly long enough. No issues. There is a choice of five hooks here. The all look good to me, none really stand out as significantly better than the rest. ALT0 verified in the source and properly cited in the article. Can certainly approve with that. ALT2 is another good choice; the "all-women staff" might add a bit more interest. Epicgenius, any preference? MB 05:57, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
- @MB: Thanks for the review. In this case, I don't have a preference between ALT0 and ALT2. Epicgenius (talk) 04:16, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
- QPQ is done, with ALT0. MB 05:17, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
