  • New enough, long enough, neutral. Earwig picks up nothing. The "several" in the hook have to be worked out by the reviewer from the statistics in the source which is not good enough. Please at least add to the text or ref note in the article. Johnbod (talk) 03:23, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
How exactly should I add additional statistics to this article? Basically, I want to clarify this part. Futurist110 (talk) 06:22, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
Don't just say "several cities" - say which. There's only a few in the source. Or at least give examples. Johnbod (talk) 12:55, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
ALT HOOK 1: ... that the German cities of Duisburg, Essen, and Kiel all had their populations increase five-fold or more between 1875 and 1910? (Source: http://germanhistorydocs.ghi-dc.org/sub_document.cfm?document_id=644 )
There--is this good enough? Also, I have already fixed this in the article as well. Futurist110 (talk) 22:25, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
  • Ok, ALT1 GTG, and now better (I'm not sure 3 = "several"). QPQ done. Johnbod (talk) 14:42, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
