Hi 97198, review follows: article created 14 August and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing from the sources; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 06:58, 14 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
