- Hi JJonahJackalope, review follows: article promoted to GA on 13 January; article is well written and cited inline throughout; sources used are reliable; I didn't pick up on any overly close paraphrasing from the sources I checked; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to the source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks good to me - Dumelow (talk) 12:23, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
