5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 16:57, 9 January 2023 (UTC).
The article is expanded fivefolds, long enough, referenced, neutral and no copyvio obvious. The hooks are sourced and interesting. AGF several offline sources in the article. The image here is free and clear, while other images in the article are also free. Just waiting for QPQ and other possible hooks. Corachow (talk) 19:45, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
- Pinging Epicgenius. Sorry, should've done it in the review. Corachow (talk) 13:28, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Corachow: Thanks for the review, and it's my fault that I didn't see this earlier. I'll do a QPQ soon and, if I have time, propose additional hooks. Epicgenius (talk) 16:08, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Corachow: I have now done a QPQ. Sadly, I can't think of any other interesting hooks (I thought I could think of a hook related to the bird cage, but it seems not). Thank you again for the review. Epicgenius (talk) 15:11, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
