Hi Orygun, review follows: article created 9 October; article exceeds minimum length and is well written; many sources are offline or subscription-only (I am waiting for my Newspapers.com account to be renewed), but I didn't find any issue with overly close paraphrasing in a spot check on some of the others; hook is interesting and mentioned in the article, I don't (currently) have access to the source but it appears to confirm the fact; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks OK to me - Dumelow (talk) 05:29, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
