Improved to Good Article status by AJona1992 (talk) and Kyle Peake (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 19:10, 24 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/La Carcacha; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Article was promoted to GA within a week of promotion. Long enough and plenty well-cited, no close paraphrasing detected. Approve ALT0 as more interesting; ALT1 is also interesting but I think a fact like that needs a citation with more retrospective distance than 1992. DigitalIceAge (talk) 20:03, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
