  • Interesting and clears Earwig, length, QPQ, and formatting, but can you provide a quotation directly in the reference to verify the claim? Orchastrattor (talk) 21:12, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
  • @Orchastrattor: It's tricky, because this hook is summing up two full pages of information. It's not something I can easily quote. --Grnrchst (talk) 08:29, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
