5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self nominated at 19:02, 7 March 2014 (UTC).
I have added a ref for the second hook but cannot find the factoid for the first (better) hook. I have struck it out but obviously someone can remove this once its cited. There are enough refs. Some paraphrasing but not too close IMO. QPQ done. Age fine. Length OK. Thanks Victuallers (talk) 11:49, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
- The first hook refers to the final two sentences of the article. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:08, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
- - I know but there wasn't a ref - I've fixed it so both hooks are fine - although I now think the first hook is more about the house than the scientist. Could I suggest that you add "while the entomologist was still at school"? Victuallers (talk) 15:24, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
