QPQs not required but done anyway—thank you! Article is long and new enough. No copyvios as far as I can tell but having to AGF since a lot of the sources are in Italian. Hooks are definitely fascinating and cited appropriately. Images are public domain. Overall, great work! ~ Pbritti (talk) 00:35, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
