Comment: I like the punchiness of ALT0, but I included alternate hooks with detail/specificity if it's too light.

Reviewing... DTM (talk)

Nominated within time and long enough. Copyvio seems ok, earwigs copyvio mainly throws up quotes. QPQ done. Articles looks well referenced and within policy. Hooks are cited inline and referenced.

ALT 0 is a good one, as Morgan695 has pointed out.
I would let ALT1 be over the subjectivity of widely covered.
ALT 2 is also a nice one.
ALT3 has 212 characters, more than the suggested "about 200".

Morgan695, please just let me know if you still want to go with ALT1, and if you could shorten ALT3 a little bit.

@DiplomatTesterMan: I think ALT0 is still a solid hook, but I will leave it to whoever promotes the nomination. Alternate below. Morgan695 (talk) 15:19, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

gtg with preference for ALT0. DTM (talk) 05:00, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

Note: I struck ALT3 since it is over 200 characters and thus ineligible for DYK. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:59, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
