QPQ: Done.

Overall: @Adog: Good article. Personally I prefer Alt1 and 3 the most as Alt0 just says the location which is completely uninteresting and alt2 to me isn't as interesting either. Waiting on a QPQ. Onegreatjoke (talk) 21:03, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

Side note, but ALT0 could probably be interesting if the image is not included, since it would no longer just be stating a location. For instance:

ALT0A: ... that Williamsburg, Virginia, has a Loch Ness Monster?
ALT0B: ... that there is a Loch Ness Monster in Williamsburg, Virginia?
ALT0C: ... that the Loch Ness Monster is in Williamsburg, Virginia? Epicgenius (talk) 00:42, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

Those seem more like April Fools Hooks though, if the author wants to go with that then they can. Onegreatjoke (talk) 01:03, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

@Onegreatjoke: I do not prefer an ALT and April's Fools is very far away (and likely to have better hooks). I will agree to a strike of ALT 0 and 2. QPQ is done now. Let me know if there is anything further required. :) Adog (Talk・Cont) 03:41, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

@Adog: Nah, ntohing else is needed.

Approving. Onegreatjoke (talk) 12:00, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

Forgot to say, thank you for the review! Also, thank you, Epic, for the additional hooks! Adog (Talk・Cont) 12:02, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
