The only thing Earwig [https://copyvios.toolforge.org/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Seven_Days_(magazine) picks up on] is something quoted in the article, which is fine, though I feel like the quote could be reworded so that we don't have to rely on that much text copied from another source but I don't think its long enough that it's a problem by any means. All the hooks are cited and interesting, looks good to go.
