  • Symbol question.svg QPQ is done (rough one! nice job.) Article length, date and referencing are good, as is neutrality. The hooks are formatted properly, catchy enough and supported by referencing. Everything is good but I wonder if the hook can be trimmed for better focus. I prefer ALT0 but can we trim it to the following ALT2 suggestion? Binksternet (talk) 22:21, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
I'm fine with that hook, Template:U, Yoninah is away for Yom Kippur, but she was already worried about the length, as you can see here, so I think she wouldn't object to shortening it. SusunW (talk) 04:36, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol confirmed.svg Okay! We're going with ALT2. Binksternet (talk) 13:30, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
