This article is new enough and long enough. Either of the two hooks could be used, I have tweaked ALT1 to better reflect the facts. The image is appropriately licensed and the article is neutral. "Earwig" brought up a 64% chance of copyright violation. Most of the highlighted phrases are proper names and are acceptable, but if you look at the "Surgical career" section you will see its structure is a bit close to the source, although as you needed to keep the information chronological, I thought it was just about acceptable. No QPQ needed. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:50, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
