Article is new enough, long enough, and within policy on neutrality, citations and plagiarism. Hook is cited inline, interesting, and short; I had to, however, correct the page in the reference. QPQ completed. SounderBruce 01:38, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
This hook seems to call out for some piping:- ALT1: ... that Abraham Lincoln probably named his horse (pictured) Old Bob to differentiate it from his son, "Young Bob"? Yoninah (talk) 21:46, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
- Fully endorse ALT1 as preferable to other hook. DarjeelingTea (talk) 22:48, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
- Approving of ALT1. SounderBruce 02:10, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
