Hi Panamitsu, review follows: article moved to mainspace on 27 October and exceeds minimum length; sources used look to be reliable for the content cited and inline citations are used throughout; I didn't pick up any issues with overly close paraphrasing in a spot check; hook fact is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 08:16, 28 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
