Article is new enough (24 April) and long enough (2828 characters), fully sourced with in-line citations. The hook is in the article, and sourced. However, the first paragraph in the Career section is quite garbled and could use a copyedit; it appears that a number of words may be missing. Copyright issues are largely non-existent, though the paragraph about his COVID-era work needs to be reworked as it's a direct copy of what's on the source website. QPQ is also needed. This one's on hold for the time being. HickoryOughtShirt?4, ping me when you've fixed these issues. MeegsC (talk) 14:29, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
