The article is long enough and new enough. I assume good faith on the German reference. A QPQ has been completed. There are only two issues. ALT1 needs a direct citation after the sentence ending with "in the European Parliament". The third reference has a title error. SL93 (talk) 23:18, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- SL93 Done as requested. Thanks for the review! (t · c) buidhe 04:24, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
