Excellent article. New enough (when posted), some excellent images including the hook which is CC-by-SA. Lots of high quality cites. GTG. Maury Markowitz (talk) 15:16, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
I've marked an unreferenced section. Schwede66 07:55, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- @Schwede66: The source for that subsection is the source given for the section of which it is part: the appendix of the Khalili book which is ref 45 in the current version. Note that the cited sentence says "a total of sixteen venues" and the sixteen include the thirteen US venues. The same information is available in lots of other places, but it's neater to cite that summary table. How do you want it to be marked in the article that the source for the full section also applies to the subsection? MartinPoulter (talk) 12:30, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
