@Miraclepine and Kingoflettuce: None of the references are accessible. For the future, it would be helpful to include the relevant text from the source in the nomination. I am working blind on this nomination and I have to promote based on the AGF principal. Lightburst (talk) 14:14, 25 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
