Length, date verified. Hook's offline (pdf) ref accepted AGF as this is a seasoned editor. All refs are acceptable. All paragraphs have refs. Interesting hook. No apparent paraphrasing issues. QPQ is done. Good to go. --Rosiestep (talk) 22:55, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Note: I originally changed "[[Hide (skin)|cow-hide]]" to "[[cowhide]]", but according to cowhide, that includes "skin and hair". I assume that just the skin is correct here, so I've changed the link back, but made the text "cow hide". MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 02:19, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
