Approve Main Hook The article was created on the 17th and nominated two days later, so is new enough. It is more than long enough and now has an in-line citation matching the source used here for the original hook (it's a stupid rule, but it's a rule). No meaningful copyvio issue after running it through the tool. I think the original hook is more interesting than the alt, so let's go with the main one. The hook is short enough and neutral. The image is under a free license, is used in the article, and shows up fine at a small size. The QPQ has been done. Good to go. SilverserenC 01:06, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
