Approving ALT1. Article is well-sourced, presentable, and copyvio-free. Article is long enough and moved to mainspace 1 day before DYK nom. ALT0 is lacking a verb (I think you just forgot to write "burned"); as such, I'm approving ALT1, which is intriguing and sourced here on page 73. Image meets criteria. QPQ done. Thank you for the nomination Kevmin! Kimikel (talk) 21:32, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
