- New article is 4,295 characters long and nominated one day later. No copyvios detected (high confidence of violation due to proper names and titles; AGF all refs re. any close paraphrasing issues, since none can go through Dup detector). Article is well-sourced. Hook is 94 characters long (under 200 character max.) and is interesting. Refs 2 and 6 (verifying the hook) are reliable sources. QPQ done. Looks good to go! —Bloom6132 (talk) 23:58, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
