  • Date, length, age, and everything else checks out. I just have a quick question about the hook: Would it read better to say "may be more common than generally thought"? Is the "is" entirely necessary? I apologize if this is super obvious. Aoba47 (talk) 22:05, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
  • @Aoba47: I'm fine without the "is" and have struck it in the hook. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:35, 30 December 2017 (UTC)
  • Thank you for addressing this; everything looks good to me. Aoba47 (talk) 15:31, 30 December 2017 (UTC)
