Hi Cwmhiraeth, review follows: article created 4 November; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited throughout to reliable sources; I detected no overly close paraphrasing from the accessible sources; hooks are both interesting (my preference is for ALT0) and cited in the article, source backs up the claims made; QPQ has been completed. Looks good to go - Dumelow (talk) 17:13, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Dumelow: Thanks for the review. ALT1 comes from a joke I found somewhere "What should you do if you get lost in an Icelandic forest?" to which the reply was "Stand up!" Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:09, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
