::* Thanks, [[User:Rodw|Rod]]. The Texas Forest Trail link apparently just broke (along with a number of other pages on their website); it is still indexed by their internal search function, and I've e-mailed them to alert them to the problem. Hopefully, they'll be able to fix it. Regarding the link to [[clubs (suit)]], I'm hoping to "future proof" the link in case either a subsection of the [[suit (cards)]] article or an entirely new article are developed dealing with clubs. If you disagree with what I've done, I'd be happy to change it, but I just wanted to let you know I did it intentionally (and give my rationale). Thanks again for your review!

  • Symbol confirmed.svg Article is new enough and long enough (1916 characters (322 words)). It is written in a neutral tone. I have marked one of the sources as a deadlink, however there are still several sources for the claim made in the hook & other claims within the article.
