Hi Hawkeye7, review follows: article created 20 September; article is excellently written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't find any issue with overly close parpahrasing from the sources in a spotcheck; a QPQ has been carried out; hook fact checks out to source cited; the hook at 230 characters is over the maximum length, do you have any suggestions for an alternative? - Dumelow (talk) 06:24, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
