Interesting, on good sources, Hebrew sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. - The hooks need work, I think. How about mentioning Jaffa? Saying not "site" but something more precise such as "former [educational] farm"? As cute as it is to combine quirky things, original hook and ALT1 rely on people knowing titles and/or authors. How about focusing on Steinbeck and saying that he not only visited but had his roots there? - How do you feel about an infobox, which would show at a glance that it's not about a mountain? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:31, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
