I am not thrilled with the original hook, and prefer the Alt1 hook. The Alt1 hook needs a cite. I will complete this review once the name change discussion is complete. --evrik ^(talk) 16:22, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

@Evrik: ALT1 is cited on the page. Go to "By 2016, he was the oldest sitting member of the House of Representatives" and you will see reference 43. - Jon698 talk 16:33, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

@Evrik: The name change has been completed so you can now complete the review. - Jon698 talk 16:56, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

I'm passing this. The hook may need some rewording. --evrik ^(talk) 21:08, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
