Comment: Note to reviewers: You don't need to go through all the hooks, just the one that grabs your interest. (Also, yes, I'm aware the image caption is too snarky to actually be used; still...)

Some of the hooks seem to have an axe to grind; I don't see the word careless or "author" (in quotes) in the article. And I'd like to see some justification for the caption on the image. EEng 23:23, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
I appreciate your work here, but yes comments like this are precisely why I added the note above. —

Sorry, I missed the note re the caption. But that still leaves careless and the quote marks in ALT1. EEng 01:22, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
This interesting article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. I have selected and approved ALT1 and ALT8. The other hooks may be all right but I have not checked them. The image is in the public domain and if used would need a new caption such as "
Robert Morrison with his two Chinese assistants". The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues.

Let's go with ALT8 but omit the photo, since it's of Morrison and neither of the assistants pictured is Cai himself.
If ALT2 is approved for
Edwin Steven's DYK, the obedience angle here might make a good pairing. —
