Date and length OK. Hook fine though you may want to break up that very long sentence @5225C:. QPQ not needed as main editor only has 2 credits and nominator has 0. No close paraphrasing. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 16:14, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@The C of E: Sorry, which sentence are you referring to?

@5225C: The hook sentence. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 13:03, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I can't see how it would be possible to breakup that sentence. The hook can either have the Mining and Pastoral region bit taken out, or be left as is. I am leaning towards the latter. Steelkamp (talk) 15:25, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Steelkamp, I don't think it can really be broken up and I don't think it's unreadably long.<
