• Long enough, new enough. Found no plagiarism. Good work. But the hook is on the long side, and would suggest cutting it a bit; see below. Drmies (talk) 17:58, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the review! I agree with you about the wording; the second version is better. --1ST7 (talk) 00:10, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

• New hook is fine (better even). Rest of the article looks up to snuff, per Drmies. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:06, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
