5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 21:52, 5 July 2020 (UTC).
- Substantial expansion, on fine sources, offline source accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. So many stages! - Of the hooks, I like ALT1 best, but approve all, for the prep-builder to choose, unless you have a preference. - In the article, I don't need the same source for almost all ministers repeated after every name. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:55, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
