- New enough, long enough, well-sourced and neutrally written, and no copyright violations detected. QPQ done. Both hooks are appropriately cited in the article; I personally prefer the first one as it's pretty funny. However, I think a bracketed word in a quote usually indicates the minor substitution of a single word, while ellipses are generally used to indicate an omitted phrase. What do you think of breaking up the quote like this?
