This article is new enough and long enough. The image is suitably licensed, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. I have tweaked the hooks a bit and added some extra references to the article to cover the hook facts. Both hooks are good to go. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:13, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
