Comment: ALT0 & ALT3 are slightly spicy "reviews", but should be fine & "hook"-y. ALT1 & ALT2 are less interesting, but also less controversial, backups.

Article clears criteria. New enough, long enough, it's well-sourced and presentable. Earwig tool shows low copyvio %. Hooks are all cited (I prefer ALT0 — it's so sad :-( but I do find it interesting for the DYK section). And QPQ is complete. Good job on this one for sure.
