Created by The-Pope (talk). Self-nominated at 15:17, 28 September 2019 (UTC).

Created within seven days of nomination, meets the length guidelines, is neutral and reliably referenced. QPQ provided. Hooks are interesting, short, neutral and reliable. Image is of the appropriate licence. Prefer the second hook; it has a spelling error in "in same the week" that will need to be addressed. MWright96 (talk) 16:25, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this. I don't think ALT1 is appropriate for a main page appearance per BLP. The source for ALT0 says this record was from 1926, with an addendum at the bottom saying that 1928 was quoted in a previous version. Yoninah (talk) 18:40, 9 October 2019 (UTC)

Thanks, all fixed. The-Pope (talk) 14:27, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

Thanks. Restoring tick per MWright96's review. Yoninah (talk) 17:18, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
