X: A Fabulous Child's Story[edit]
- ... that a short story about a child raised without a gender served as an inspiration for a 1975 scientific experiment? Source: "In one condition, the child was introduced as a girl; in another, as a boy; and in a third, no gender information was given. Inclusion of the third condition was prompted in part by a children's story appearing in Ms. magazine about "Baby X" (Gould, 1972)." (Seavey, Katz, & Zalk, 1975, p. 104)
- ALT1:... that a Village Voice critic described the end of the picture book X: A Fabulous Child's Story as "a rather nice verbal joke–with just a whiff of cloning"? Source: Source 6 (can provide scans if requested).

Overall: 
Moved to mainspace on January 30, and nominated within seven days on February 5. Length is adequte. Article is neutral in tone, and provides balanced praise and criticism. No plagiarism issures detected. Hooked is cited from an offline source, and properly mentioned in the Legacy section. Hook citation accepted by AGF. The article is adequately sourced. I also understand that the plot section does not require citations as per MOS:PLOTSOURCE, however I am curious if there an available plot summary to cite? QPQ is required and still outstanding.

- Thanks Flibirigit! QPQ is done (or, as done as this one is). Not sure if there's an available plot summary but Fremont-Smith 1978 goes pretty in-depth on the plot. All the best —Collint c 06:43, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
Thanks, both hooks are good to go, with a preference for ALT0. Flibirigit (talk) 07:01, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
