Doing.....Will review. Interesting, QPQ supplied, hook in article, well sourced, new enough and long enough. Will complete soon. In mean time...talk page requires attention. Whispyhistory (talk) 06:50, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
Copyvio due to names mainly. Reads well. Hook in article followed by in-line citation of a reference containing hook fact. I prefer proposed hook.Article not a stub. Whispyhistory (talk) 15:12, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- ALT1 is the better hook. The source given for the preferred hook does not state Victoria Braithwaite "discovered" fish feel pain, and even if in some sense she did, other scientists would have at least equal claims (such as Lynne Sneddon). – Epipelagic (talk) 13:47, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- I agree, ALT0 was probably a bit too sweeping, so happy to go with ALT1. I've added a wikilink to Pain in fish, hope that's okay to have done in the original rather than propose a new hook, as it's a very minor change!
