Went over this article for DYK and I believe it's good to go. New and long enough, within policy. Hook format is good and QPQ is completed. I think the hook itself is fine. It's pushing that 200 character limit, but not quite over. The content is fairly interesting and is sourced properly. The article is lengthy and interesting enough that maybe an ALT can be proposed, but that's not necessary either. I also like the image and would run it with it.
