Overall: It was rather easy this time. The article is new* and long enough, sourcing is fairly good, no neutrality or plagiarism issues. The hook is approved. Basically, no objections to the nomination, the article just makes it. (* just a sidenote: you didn't really create it; rather, you converted the article from a redirect. That's not an issue for me, because you've done so within 7 days of the nomination, but you should have written redirect in front of status, rather than new.). PS. I've made some minor fixes in language - these did not influence the breadth of coverage. Szmenderowiecki (talk) 07:04, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
@Piotrus and Szmenderowiecki: I'm happy to promote this hook, but proverbs are pithy, and that naturally lends itself to a hook, so this may have room to improve. How about:
ALT1: That the oldest known Polish proverb, dating to 1407, translates to "when bast can be torn, then tear it"?
