- Comment: Not using image or Achilles myth in the hook, as this likely refers to the other game.

Article looks good. Hooks is interesting and checks out; however, out of the two sentences in the article that make this claim, none have a citation immediately following; since you're using the Depaulis source, you should put it after "which unlike polis remained popular to this day". (However, the quote from Max Nelson needs a citation afterwards too.) QPQ checks out. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 16:47, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- Generalissima, I am not sure if I fully understand what you mean - end of paragraph citations are fine AFAIK for short paragraphs where there are no other sources. That said, I've added a direct quotation relevant to the hook's claim to one of the refs - I hope will address the main issue.

Piotrus Usually, yes, but WP:DYKG says that sentences containing the hook must be cited. It's irritating; that being said, all is good now. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 02:46, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
