  • ALT1:... that there are antlions living in East Anglia?
  • Reviewed: Makrana marble
  • Comment: East Anglia is a term that covers Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire,and in case you think the hook uninteresting, I was most surprised to find that there were antlions living in the UK.

  • Symbol confirmed.svg sufficient size expansion in time period, written neutrally, no copyvio detected, QPQ done, hook cited and faithful to source. (NB: FN 4 is dead). good to go. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 03:26, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
Thanks. I have removed the dead link. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:30, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
Symbol question.svg I don't think the hook is interesting enough to anyone unfamiliar with the distribution of antlions. How about expanding on it a little bit with with the proposed hook below? It is backed up by the same paragraph and source as the previous hooks. Jolly Ω Janner 03:13, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
  • ALT2 ... that antlions, which are found over most of the European continent, are extremely rare in Great Britain and only known to breed in two areas across East Anglia?
I don't object to ALT2, but to me as a UK resident, the presence of "exotic" antlions in Britain came as a great surprise. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:02, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
Citation added. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:28, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
  • Symbol confirmed.svg per Cas Liber, article is fine. ALT2 is supported by the cited BBC source. I prefer ALT1, short and quirky. Antlions? Anyway, good to go with the main hook and either ALT. Aymatth2 (talk) 15:16, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
