Moved to mainspace within seven days, long enough and within policy. All three hooks are formatted correctly, content is cited in the article, and neutral. QPQ done, image licensing etc all ok. I prefer ALT1, but any would be fine. Nice job. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 09:29, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
