5x expanded by Bermicourt (talk). Self-nominated at 16:19, 29 October 2021 (UTC).
The article was 5x expanded on the 25th, so is new enough. It is more than long enough and reads neutrally with in-line citations. The hooks are short enough, cited in-line, and I think the main hook is more interesting to general readers who may not understand the alt hook. The image is copyright free and is easily viewable at the small size, so no problems there. The only thing we're missing is the QPQ. SilverserenC 05:42, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
