Improved to Good Article status by Ktin (talk) and Graham Beards (talk). Nominated by Ktin (talk) at 16:50, 31 December 2021 (UTC).
Hi Ktin, review follows: article promoted to GA on 31 December; article is well written and cited inline throughout to what look to be reliable sources; I didn't pick up on any overly close paraphrasing; hook is interesting, mentioned in the article and checks out to the source cited; a QPQ has been carried out. No issues here. I am happy to pop back to review any alternative hooks you propose, just give me a ping - Dumelow (talk) 09:55, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
