  • Symbol question.svg Very interesting topic and well written article, but the sentence that supports the hook does not seem to have a citation. Lankiveil (speak to me) 09:12, 2 November 2013 (UTC).
Sure-- I've sourced the statement with an existing source in the article. I, JethroBT drop me a line 16:11, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
Per the list provided by User:Allen3 here, I stopped by to check for compliance with medical sourcing. I don't see health-related statements in the article that would engage MEDRS, so I will not contribute a full review here, but what stands out immediately is a) why is there a "The" in the article title, and b) the hook needs to be copyedited (even ?), and c) the source cannot be verified unless one has the book, and in such cases, I would request a quote to verify that the source is accurately represented (I realize it is customary at DYK to AGF on hooks, but I don't see any harm in asking that the editor place the quote from the source here for verification-- I would want to particularly verify the word "most" in the hook.)
