5x expanded by Z1720 (talk). Self-nominated at 17:49, 2 July 2022 (UTC).
Approve main hook and image The article had its prose 5x expanded today, making it long enough, and it is written neutrally with proper in-line citations. The Copvio Detector found no issues. The hook is short enough, interesting, and cited in-line. I think we should go with the main hook as the more interesting one. The QPQ has been done and the proposed image is in the public domain and will look fine at a smaller size presentation. Everything looks good to go! SilverserenC 22:14, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
