Article is proper and new, sourcing is present, no obvious copyright problems, QPQ done. Hook is short enough and decently interesting. Was a bit unfamiliar with the newspaper citation style used in the article but I think it's correct; no reason my uncertainty on that should hold this up. Overall, great job here. Passes! ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:16, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
