Moved to mainspace by Roniius (talk). Self-nominated at 03:50, 13 December 2019 (UTC).
Date, size, refs, neutrality, copyvio spotcheck, all good. First hook is too generic, but second one is interesting. The article needs a bit more attention to inline citations, I've marked a bunch of sentences with 'cite needed'. Waiting for QPQ review. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:11, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
- Piotrus, this is the nominator's fifth DYK nomination (the other four are also in progress), so no QPQ is required. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:45, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
- @BlueMoonset: I thought three were freebies; is the number five or higher? PS. I was about to pass it but I see the cite requests are still oustanding. Ping User:Roniius. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:40, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
- Piotrus, it's been five freebies ever since I've been involved in DYK. WP:DYK#QPQ has the details. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:39, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

The article has half a dozen "citation needed" templates, and Roniius has yet to respond here despite a number of pings to their talk page and requests to respond here. It cannot be approved until these have been taken care of. If the issues are not addressed in the next week, the nomination will be marked for closure. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:28, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
- @BlueMoonset: I have dealt with the Citation Needed templates. Roniius (talk) 01:45, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
@Roniius: While there are still two sentences at the end of their two relevant paragraphs that are unreferenced, I think this is a minor technicality as far as the DYK goes. They'll need to be referenced for this to advance to GA+. Anyway, this is much better than an average DYK, good job! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:02, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
