Article is new enough (moved to main space on Jan 25), long enough, and well referenced. ALT0 is interesting and supported by offline ref, accepted AGF. ALT1 is less interesting, IMO. QPQ not required for new nominator. No copyvio detected. Image (the first one) is relevant and freely licensed. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 07:16, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
