General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: New enough (created March 5), long enough, well-sourced, and neutrally written. No copyvio detected; hook is interesting and cited. QPQ done, so looks good! One suggestion might be to reword the hook a little:

ALT1: ... that the Poème roumain was composed by George Enescu when he was only 16 years old?

This puts Poème roumain first and may drive more clicks to the article, instead of to George Enescu. Let me know if you have any thoughts on this, GeneralPoxter. I'm approving this in the meantime anyway because the original hook works too. Best, DanCherek (talk) 16:07, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the alt DanCherek. I'm not all too concerned over clicks and views, but you do have a good point in that the DYK hook should place emphasis on the new article (Poème roumain), so I think ALT1 would be the better option in this case. GeneralPoxter (talk) 16:39, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
