This article is a massive expansion and is new enough and long enough. The hook facts for all the hooks are cited inline, and I prefer ALT0. The image is suitably licensed, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:38, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
