The article was created yesterday, so is new enough. It is much more than long enough and properly uses in-line citations. AGF on proper paraphrasing of the offline sources was used. Both hooks are interesting and cited in-line, with the first one being better I think (though perhaps need some commas?). The only thing holding up this review, Alessandro57, is that the QPQ hasn't been done yet. SilverserenC 21:37, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
- I see that you're still editing, Alessandro57. Were you planning on doing a QPQ review or is this nomination abandoned? SilverserenC 23:46, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
- No worries, of course I am planning a QPQ. I am still recovering from last month's two QPQ per hook ... ;-) Cheers, Alex2006 (talk) 03:16, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
- Review done, Silver seren. Alex2006 (talk) 05:38, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

- @Alessandro57 and Silver seren: There are an awful lot of single sentence paragraphs, which should be avoided per WP:PARAGRAPH - granted 'presentable' is nebulous to the point of otiosity but I think some of these can be knocked together.--Launchballer 21:58, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
