  • Comment Suggested two ALTs (I like ALT2, ALT3 kinda falls flat). Hope this helps! :) theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (they/she?) 20:23, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • No concerns from me: this is a newly created article, duly sourced, neutral, long enough, free from copyright issues, etc. Good work – you always write such interesting articles! I don't have any strong feelings about the hook: all of the suggestions meet the basic "interestingness" threshold and are sourced, so I'll leave the choice to the prep-builder. Let me know when you've done the QPQ and I'll mark this approved. Best regards, Extraordinary Writ (talk) 07:32, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
