@Onceinawhile: Ok article but there are many missing citations after sentences that will need to be added for this to pass. Also that picture is definitely clear at that size. Onegreatjoke (talk) 23:06, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for the review Onegreatjoke. I have been through and added the missing citations. On image, the other alternative is shown on the right here - I have colorized it to make it look even clearer. Onceinawhile (talk) 23:33, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
I doubt the image will go through but approve for citations seeming alright. Onegreatjoke (talk) 21:10, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
