  • @ Gwillhickers: could the hook be cited inline in the article before I promote? theleekycauldron ( talk • contribs) (she/ they) 12:03, 17 April 2022 (UTC) reply

The article has already been promoted and is currently in the staging area. See the first paragraph in the Battle of Trenton section, where four sources are used to cite the idea put forth in the hook. -- Gwillhickers ( talk) 02:29, 18 April 2022 (UTC) reply
