Pennella exocoeti, Hans Severin Holten

edit

Is this hook interesting? Well, a copepod is a crustacean (think lobster, crab, shrimp) so to call it a worm was quite wide of the mark. Created by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 08:39, 1 August 2018 (UTC).

  • Cwmhiraeth, both articles are new, long enough, and free of copyvio and sourcing problems. QPQ is done. I like the factoid, but I'm not sure about the phrasing of the hook. Is there a way to explain in the hook how off the mark "gill-worm" is? Otherwise it just sounds like a simple mistake, and isn't that hooky. ♠PMC(talk) 23:04, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

  • That's perfect, now the reader knows why "worm" was an odd descriptor. Should be good to go with ALT1! ♠PMC(talk) 14:42, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
