- Comment: Caldecott Honoree from earlier this year, whose WP article's first attempt was recently socked and clocked. This time around, yours truly--still in the midst of a comeback spree as editor, and just one day after my previous stint concerning Apparition, a very short-lived film distributor from the turn of the New Tens, was showcased on DYK--may be heading for what he thought was out of his reach...until now: The highly coveted Four Award. (Saying hi to CT55555 (talk · contribs), whose turn will arrive once Uranium mining in the Bancroft area passes FAC. Helps that both of our pages debuted as AFC graduates; mine got a B grade last night, which should definitely bode well for our chances in the days ahead.)
  As for the hook suggestions, I simply can't make up my mind over which one will get promoted--equally strong contenders as they are. Whichever one makes it, place your bets--and as always, wish me luck soon!
