5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 16:57, 11 September 2021 (UTC).
- Article was 7 times expanded from the nominator's first major edit and the lead itself passes 1,500 characters and is therefore new enough and long enough. The article is neutral and well-sourced. The hook is broad and Alt0 is the best variant of writing. The hook is under 200 characters. QPQ completed and the image is free to use. Good Job! Panini!🥪 19:34, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
