Thanks Steelkamp. I think what happened with the end of paragraph 1 is that I opted to split what was a larger paragraph into two, so the first cite in paragraph 2 originally covered both sentences. I have copied that cite to the end of P1 now, although it didn't have any material effect on the hook proposed. I also wonder if it's worth noting the year (1921) in the hook to give some period context? Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 06:59, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

Either way seems fine to me. I've approved this hook now. Steelkamp (talk) 07:05, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
