- This is a nice article, but it has not been created, expanded 5x, or promoted to GA within the DYK timeframe. Please clarify, if I am missing something. HouseOfChange (talk) 19:48, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hello HouseOfChange, it was moved from draftspace on 30 December[2]. CMD (talk) 00:01, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- OK! In that case, article is new enough. Also long enough, neutral, with good online citations. Copyvio check clean. Both hooks good, I prefer ALT1 but either is fine. Image is clear at small size, permissions check out. QPQ done. @Chipmunkdavis: Thanks for the explanation, I am a bit new at this. DYK ready to go. HouseOfChange (talk) 00:14, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
