Improved to Good Article status by Htanaungg (talk). Self-nominated at 08:18, 17 November 2021 (UTC).
– Newly promoted GA; long enough; neutral; fully cited; Earwig finds no copyright issues. I'm assuming good faith on the foreign-language sources. Exempt from the quid-pro-quo requirement (but this is your fifth DYK, so you'll need a QPQ for any future nominations). I think ALT1 is the most interesting, but all of the hooks are good to go. Thanks for writing this article! Extraordinary Writ (talk) 19:36, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
ALT1 to T:DYK/P1
- Changed "they all were" to "they had all been" at T:DYK/P1 for improved phrasing. — BarrelProof (talk) 17:19, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
