Article is new and long enough. Referenced, neutral in tone, free of copy vio. Hook is included, referenced and confirmed. (also mentioned on Radiolab). Image is included, relevant and free. You have over 100 DYK nominations, so I am looking for a QPQ for this to proceed. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 09:59, 18 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
