5x expanded by Muboshgu (talk). Self-nominated at 21:32, 26 January 2021 (UTC).
Newness requirement satisified by 5x expansion between 1/24 and 1/27. Article is also long enough, well sourced/cited, and policy compliant (and Earwig detects no issues). The hooks are interesting, short enough, and supported by in-line sources. Personally, I prefer alt0 which I think is close to being a perfect hook. Nice work! And QPQ satisfied.

- I agree with ALT0 being the best to use, @Muboshgu: I have taken the liberty of moving it to the AFD holding area for you. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 15:43, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
