Hi Bennv123, review follows: article created 8 December and exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't pick up on any overly close paraphrasing from the sources; hooks are interesting, facts are mentioned in the article and check out to sources cited; just awaiting a QPQ on this I think - Dumelow (talk) 08:59, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Dumelow: Thanks for reviewing. The QPQ has now been added. Bennv123 (talk) 10:07, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Bennv123, looks good to me - Dumelow (talk) 10:08, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
