Hi 97198, review follows: article crated 22 August; article exceeds minimum length and is well written; sources are cited inline throughout and are reliable; I didn't spot any overly close paraphrasing from the sources; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 10:52, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
