Adding reference and pointer to proof, with thanks to Andreas Blass's comment
May 23 at 15:31 comment added Andreas Blass The Wikipedia statement has acquired a source, but it's easier to write a proof than to look up the source. Let $H$ be the hull in question, so $H\prec L_{\omega_1}$. Suppose $x\in y\in H$; we want to prove $x\in H$. Since $L_{\omega_1}$ satisfies "all sets are countable", so does $H$. So $H$ contains a function $f$ from $\omega$ onto $y$. Now $x=f(n)$ for some natural number $n$. Since $H$ contains both $f$ and $n$, it contains $f(n)$, as desired.

Possibly poor sourcing
