New article is 1,647 characters long and nominated five days after first expansion. No copyvios detected and duplication detector [1][2][3][4][5][6] reveal no close paraphrasing issues. Article is well-sourced. Hook is 92 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting. Ref 1 (verifying the hook) is a reliable source. QPQ done. Looks good to go! —Bloom6132 (talk) 07:25, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
