Moved to mainspace by Dumelow (talk). Self-nominated at 06:04, 6 October 2021 (UTC).
Hi @Dumelow:, review follows: moved to mainspace on 6 October; article is well written and long enough; sources in the article appear reliable; hooks are interesting and cited, the first one is available online and checks out while for the ALT1 I am ready to AGF; QPQ done; images are freely licensed and although I am not really good with copyright I believe the image of Blogg's bust needs Template:FoP-UK on Commons; there appears to be no copyvio or close paraphrasing. Good to go, OakMapping (talk) 12:36, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review OakMapping, I've added the FoP tag to the Commons license section - Dumelow (talk) 18:18, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
