• • Annwfwn, thanks for getting into DYK! The article is adequately sourced -- lead sections don't need to have citations, per WP:LEADCITE (they're considered cited by the body). This can be confusing to many newer editors, but you'll have the hang of it next time. Review looks good otherwise. Vaticidalprophet 18:00, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
