Hi Therapyisgood, review follows: article created 12 January and exceeds minimum length; sources used are reliable for the subject and citations are inline throughout; article is well written; I didn't pick up on any overly close paraphrasing from the sources I could access (I don't have access to the NYT or Washington Post); hook is interesting, mentioned in the article, and checks out to sources; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 08:29, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
